| Research Abstract |
This joint research project has attempted to inquire about the new system of politics and economy emerged in the process of after the reform and open-door policies starting from the 1980s in China and its model for transformation. In order to study this subject, this project with foreign as well as Japanese scholars has adopted a new approach, in other words, the interdisciplinary and international one. Our members whose disciplines are different from each other s including political science, economics, sociology, or history, have conducted joint research on the newly emerging politico-economic system in the post-reform period. They have frequently confirmed through repeated meetings among Japanese members and virtual communication by e-mails their common goal for finding China's new system of politics and economy. Through doing so, we have reached several common points of conclusion on the newly emerging systems of politics and economy after the reform and open-door policies and its model. In the first place, the new economic system has almost been established, and it seems similar to the market-oriented system outside China though socialist and traditional elements have still remained in part. In the second, no clear system of politico-economic system has been built even after 20 years of China's attempt for reforms. In the third, the party itself and public intellectuals in China have shared the crisis consciousness. This project has made a contribution to China Studies though several points seems to remain for more careful research. Included is an issue of governance. This joint project attempts to publish a book in English complied by papers written by Japanese members and foreign partners, and it will be published at the end of this year. The title of this book is "Restructuring China - Party, State, and Society"
