商品簡介
Among other fears from the two emerging Asian giants is now the prospect of them closing the democracy gap. Scholars from China, India, and the US who have closely studied the grass-roots political experience in the two countries from an interdisciplinary perspective examine the process of democratization, especially the trend of expanding demands for participation and complex power structures interjecting them. Most focus on one country or the other, and especially on specific local situations, but others offer comparative studies. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
