課程目標 |
This master-level course titled China Local Governance is designed to offer critical (***Krug 2002)reviews on China’s local transition over the past three decades. Students taking this course will be expected to understand latest literature debate on (1) political, social and territorial dynamics at local and between local and central level; (2) specific urban and rural-related development issues.
The course also carefully selects readings between area-focused journals on the one hand and topic-oriented and disciplines-based journals. Students should be able to understand how journals are different from each other in terms of paper structures (for example, how much for theoretical parts, how much for empirical facts?) and orientation of arguments (critical or conservative?)

課程要求 |
Each week (except Week1 (09/15, introduction), Week9 (11/10, mid-term week), Week 14 (12/01, movie), and Week 18 (01/12, final-term exam)) has three articles as required readings. All students are required to read all three articles and make a critical comment (in a format of one Q and one A and academic writing) with word count at least 800 words. Relevant data (pieces of news, other written or video materials and so on) to support your comments are highly encouraged to be attached with you weekly report. This part is 25 %.
In university seminars, students are expected to talk and discuss loudly and voluntarily. Your active participation in the class is very important. In addition, each student must be rotated as a chair for discussion of a paper about one hour (it means three students are appointed for every week). You must read the assigned article very carefully and give us your thoughtful review on the article. You are also advised to read your classmates’ weekly reports critically. This part is 25%.
The other 25% is your mid-term report. You need to answer the follow question:
Although regime types have changed in China, there is still certain historical continuality in political and social operations between the dynastic past and the communist nowadays. Discuss.This exercise will need to be submitted on 11/10.
The final 25% is your final-term literature report. This research proposal exercise is to ask you to think of what are the important and interesting theoretical gaps in the existing literature. Your proposal will be marked at A++ if you reach the following criteria: theoretically innovative, methodologically operational, informatively contented, and logically written. This exercise need to be handed in by 12/01/12.
All exercises and reports and proposals need to upload in the CEIBA. NO reasons for any kind of late submission are accepted.
The score will be marked at grade instead of number.
