Rezensionen

"Li Wei's edited volume contributes to codification of Public Policy Processes with Chinese Characteristics in the making. Scholars balanced an inside-out approach of deriving a Chinese model with an outside-in approach with suggestions on how western models may be selectively useful for China's consideration. This east-west intellectual interaction supports progressive development of Public Administration with Chinese Characteristics."

"In this volume, Drs Wei Li and Fang Chen comprehensively depicted policy processes, from delivering service contracts to governance mechanisms and institutions. Through diverse theoretical and methodological approaches in mainland China and Taiwan, this volume offers groundbreaking insights for academics and practitioners regionally and globally."

Professor Christopher M. Weible, University of Colorado Denver, USA

"This volume offers an insightful exploration of China's policy processes, adeptly bridging Eastern and Western academic traditions. It provides a comprehensive examination of governance mechanisms, political-administrative relations, and the distinctive role of non-governmental actors, thereby illuminating the evolving nature of policy development in China. This book's thorough investigation of both traditional and contemporary facets of China's policy environment renders it a crucial addition to the field, enriching the understanding of comparative policy analysis across varied political landscapes.
