DESCRIPTION:A guest lecture by Professor Shitong Qiao of Duke University.\n
 \nCo-sponsored by the Departments of History and Political Science of Conc
 ordia University\, as well as the Chaire du recherche du Canada en droit d
 es bien transystemique et communautés durables in the Faculty of Law (McGi
 ll University)\n\nAbstract: Based on six-year fieldwork across China inclu
 ding over 200 in-depth interviews\, this book provides an ethnographic acc
 ount of how hundreds of millions of Chinese homeowners practice democracy 
 in and beyond their condominium complexes. Using interviews\, survey data\
 , and a comprehensive examination of laws\, policies\, and judicial decisi
 ons\, this book also examines how the party-state in China responds to the
  risks and benefits brought by neighborhood democratization. Moreover\, th
 is book provides a framework to analyze different approaches to the author
 itarian dilemma facing neighborhood democratization\, which may increase t
 he regime’s legitimacy and expose it to the challenge of independent organ
 izations at the same time. Lastly\, this book identifies conditions under 
 which neighborhood democratization can succeed.\n
