Politicized Medical Dispute Resolution in China

Více o knize

Focusing on the politicization of social dispute resolution, this book delves into the alarming rise of hospital violence in China, where over 70% of public hospitals have faced such incidents. Through extensive fieldwork, including over 700 mediation cases and interviews with various stakeholders, it reveals how the Chinese party-state employs traditional mediation to manage these conflicts. The study highlights the interplay between political stability, moral concerns, and mediation outcomes, offering insights into non-electoral political participation and evolving government strategies in dispute resolution.
