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\n\nBased on six-year fieldwork across China inc
 luding over 200 in-depth interviews\, this book provides an ethnographic a
 ccount of how hundreds of millions of Chinese homeowners practice democrac
 y in and beyond their condominium complexes. Using interviews\, survey dat
 a\, and a comprehensive examination of laws\, policies\, and judicial deci
 sions\, this book also examines how the party-state in China responds to t
 he risks and benefits brought by neighborhood democratization. Moreover\, 
 this book provides a framework to analyze different approaches to the auth
 oritarian dilemma facing neighborhood democratization\, which may increase
  the regime’s legitimacy and expose it to the challenge of independent org
 anizations at the same time. Lastly\, this book identifies conditions unde
 r which neighborhood democratization can succeed.\n\nShitong Qiao\n\nShito
 ng Qiao is Professor of Law and Ken Young-Gak Yun and Jinah Park Yun Resea
 rch Scholar at Duke University. He also taught property and comparative la
 w at the University of Hong Kong and New York University and was Law and P
 ublic Affairs fellow at Princeton University. He received his law degrees 
 from Wuhan (LLB)\, Peking (MPhil) and Yale (LLM and JSD). Professor Qiao e
 mploys mixed methods to explore the relationship between political power\,
  law\, and private ordering.\n
