PARTY‐STATE URBANISM: Coevolution of Local State Capacity and Strategic Alliances in Shenzhen

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract What is distinct about Chinese urban governance? Classic theories predict that when the central state retreats from resource allocation, capacity‐strained local governments must form alliances with non‐state actors, thereby diluting state power. In China, however, state power remains dominant despite decentralization.
