Description

This Routledge volume examines how the state and social organisations including NGOs are reshaping social service provision in contemporary China. Through a series of case studies, the book reveals a dynamic whereby the state progressively withdraws from direct service delivery whilst social organisations expand their role to fill emerging gaps. An interdisciplinary team of contributors explores this shifting relationship and its implications for state-society relations and the quality of social services delivered to vulnerable populations. Grounded in current research, the work engages established debates on state-society dynamics and introduces a thematic framework for evaluating welfare provision in modern China.

Key Features
