Wang's book offers an empirically rich and conceptually nuanced analysis of how local state agents maintain control over village self-governance in China. His careful analysis of primary documents enables him to explicate the formal mechanisms used by members of the local state to influence village affairs. Meanwhile, his rigorous and fascinating ethnographic data enable him to elucidate the manifold ways in which informal clientelist ties between local state officials and village elites permit the former to exert control. Overall, this excellent book powerfully demonstrates the need for scholars to go beyond attention to election processes when evaluating what village democracy means in a Chinese context. It is a must-read for all serious scholars of Chinese politics and society. —Rachel Murphy, University of Oxford Guohui Wang's highly original, in-depth case research vividly reveals the dynamics of contemporary Chinese village politics. By combining abundant empirical data with close observation as an "insider," his book illustrates the processes and consequences of transplanting 'democracy' into rural Chinese society. Particularly for those in the West who are keen on understanding the ongoing transformation of rural China, this book is a rich and revealing source. —Shukai Zhao, Development Research Center of the State Council, P.R.

The 73Rd Constitutional Amendment In 1993 For The First Time Provided A Statutory Imperative For The Establishment Of Gram Sabhas In Rural India. All The State Governments, Conforming To The Provision, Accordingly Provided For Gram Sabha In Their Respective Panchayati Raj Acts. / This Was A Major Step In The Legal Empowerment Of Gram Sabha. Conceptually, It Was Generally Considered As The Assembly Of All Registered Voters Of A Village Panchayat, Or A Group Of Villages. The Underlying Assumption Is That The Institution Of Gram Sabha At The Village Level Would Ensure Direct Democracy With Optimum Community Participation, Transparency And Accountability. In A Way, It Was A Leap Forward To Translate The Concept Of Gram Swaraja Of Mahatma Gandhi Into Reality.Recognizing The Essence Of Participatory Democracy At Village Level, The Government Of India Declared The Year 1999-2000 As The Year Of Gram Sabha To Set The Process Of Decentralized Democracy In Motion, With Human Development As The Core Objective Of Planning. This Signified The Importance And Potential With Which The Institution Has To Serve As The Basic Unit Of Village Governance And Could Be The Most Effective Mechanism To Involve People In Planning, Implementing And Overseeing The Village Development Activities. It Is Hoped That The Present Volume Will Be Helpful In Crystalysing Our Strategy For Rural Development Through Strengthening Village Democracy.

In today's globalising world, there is growing emphasis on local democracy. More than ever, cities need new ideas for ways of managing the political challenges and opportunities that arise from increased urbanisation and globalisation. Governing effectively at the local level is all the more urgent as vigorous local civic engagement builds the foundation for a strong and more enduring national-level democracy. Organised into six chapters and written by experts from around the world this handbook offers: practical suggestions for designing systems of local governance; principles and policies for managing culturally diverse cities; choices for enhancing local elections and representative democracy; options for expanding citizen participation; recommendations for the international community for enhancing local democracy.

"Village communities have been in existence in India for over centuries and panchayats have been an intimate part of the Indian culture. Panchayat system is one of the unique democratic institutions evolved in India by country's own genius and ethos. The post-73rd amendment phase has generated immense interest among the observers and experts who were keen to understand this significant change in the pattern of governance at the grassroots level. In the continuation of the process of strengthening institutional governance at local level, an innovation of Gram Swaraj system was introduced in Madhya Pradesh in 2001. The book is an attempt to identify, document and comprehend the broad trends emanating from the field, based on the experience of three years' functioning of Gram Swaraj in Madhya Pradesh. Three years is a short span of time for the dust to settle from such radical changes. However, it is important to understand and analyse the process and direction of institutionalisation of the present system and its status in the initial phase, which would have a significant impact and critical lessons for charting out the future course of action for effective people-centric development and governance not only in the state but across the country. The book will interest a range of readers including researchers, bureaucrats, policy makers, planners and those concerned with the development of rural India."

This book chronicles the evolution and progress of village elections in China, and offers a roadmap as to what could eventually be the beginning of a more extensive liberalization and democratization process. Initiatives to allow greater autonomy to common people led to eventually allowing village elections, which allowed all villages to elect their mayor, or village chief and local council every three years.

This book examines the status of village democracy, studies the achievements and the problems, explains its dynamics, and investigates the prospects of China's democratization. It challenges the skeptics with a nuanced assessment of village democracy in its variety and diversity. It develops an understanding of how three key factors - township, economy and kinship-- shape village democracy and account for the variations of rural democracy. The extension of village to township elections has been examined and an idea of mixed regime being formulated with an examination of its key features and implications for our understanding of political development in China.
