Description

Explore the changing landscape of social service provision in contemporary China with this academic volume from the Routledge Contemporary China Series. This book examines how the state and various social organizations, such as NGOs, manage the growing needs of the population. Through a series of detailed case studies, readers can see how the state is increasingly stepping back from direct service provision, allowing social organizations to fill the resulting gaps. This work brings together an interdisciplinary group of contributors to look at how these shifts change the relationship between the state and society. It also looks at how these changes affect the actual quality of the services being provided to the people. By using current research, this book adds new perspectives to existing academic debates regarding state-society relations and the evolving structure of social welfare systems in China.
