This collection includes twelve review articles on rural politics in China, focusing on intellectual debates about the status and future of the peasantry, everyday practices of governance, forms of contentious politics, the mutual constitution of the rural and urban, and a range of environmental issues.
This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Peasant Studies.
This collection provides an overview of Chinas rural politics, bringing scholarship on agrarian politics from various social science disciplines together in one place. The twelve contributions, spanning history, anthropology, sociology, environmental studies, political science, and geography, address enduring questions in peasant studies, including the relationship between states and peasants, taxation, social movements, rural-urban linkages, land rights and struggles, gender relations, and environmental politics. Taking rural politics as the power-inflected processes and struggles that shape access and control over resources in the countryside, as well as the values, ideologies and discourses that shape those processes, the volume brings research on China into conversation with the traditions and concerns of peasant studies scholarship. It provides both an introduction to those unfamiliar with Chinese politics, as well as in-depth, new research for experts in the field.
