In most non-democratic countries, today governing forty-four percent of the world population, the power of the regime rests upon a ruling party. Contrasting with conventional notions that authoritarian regime parties serve to contain elite conflict and manipulate electoral-legislative processes, this book presents the case of China and shows that rank and-file members of the Communist Party allow the state to penetrate local communities. Subnational comparative analysis demonstrates that in 'red areas' with high party saturation, the state is most effectively enforcing policy and collecting taxes. Because party membership patterns are extremely enduring, they must be explained by events prior to the Communist takeover in 1949. Frontlines during the anti-colonial Sino-Japanese War (1937–1945) continue to shape China's political map even today. Newly available evidence from the Great Leap Forward (1958–1961) and the Cultural Revolution (1966–1976) shows how a strong local party basis sus

本書特色★日本詩人多喜百合子首本中譯詩集。★本詩集譯者亦是著名詩人李魁賢，獲頒2016年奈姆．弗拉舍里文學獎，賦予桂冠詩人榮銜，並聘為詩歌節榮譽委員；2017年國家文藝獎得主。序前言／多喜百合子 2021年初，很高興接到台灣著名詩人李魁賢博士電子郵件：「I got an idea to translate one volume of your poems into Mandarin this year and to publish it in Taiwan thereafter. I don't know whether you are interesting this idea or not. If it is affirmative, please give me a word file including your poems to be translated. It had better in English and Japanese bilingual.」 早在2013年，我有10首詩，包括描寫福島事故的詩作，就被李魁賢博士翻譯成華語，收入《世界女詩人選集》（秀威2013），其中一首〈假使〉還發表在台灣大報《自由時報》上。從2011年3月11日發生福島事故起兩年間，當事國日本在政府主導下，試圖把災害損失看得微乎其微，反而在台灣有20萬人舉行反核示威遊行。 另外在2015年，詩〈福島的希望〉（福島核電廠災變第4年）也被譯成中文，刊載於台南福爾摩莎國際詩歌節大會詩選集《鳳凰花開時》。 此次，除上述11首詩外，另傳送16首詩和3篇短論給他。 台灣是世界模範國家，在武漢肺炎全世界擴大傳染的苦難中，政府正確又科學的初期對策奏效，全民過著正常生活。即使有關核電，也已經從日本事故中學到經驗，掌握正確方向。 拙詩蒙代表台灣的詩人李魁賢博士，親手翻譯成台灣使用語言，有幸能獲得理智的台灣方家閱讀，喜悅莫此為甚。 謹向李魁賢博士致上衷心謝忱。書籍簡介「然而所有陣亡者及其遺族不是報復但願人間不再發生這種慘事。」 ──〈不是報復〉（報復ではなく）311地震福島核電外洩、廣島及長崎原爆、911恐怖攻擊、日本慰安婦議題――多喜百合子在《世紀悲歌》中表達了對世界上種種悲劇的憤怒與憂慮，透過文字，作者向世界大聲疾呼。質樸的句子，蘊含的情感是如此沉重，讀起來令
