{"product_id":"political-trust-in-china-lianjiang-li-9780472057528","title":"Political Trust in China","description":"The authoritarian regime in China is a prime target of the US-led war on autocracy; however, the regime claims a majority of the Chinese people trust the government, with national surveys since the 1990s supporting this assertion. How much do Chinese citizens actually trust the one-party regime? Instead of dismissing survey results, Li examines the contexts in which Chinese citizens are predisposed to say they trust the government. He argues that political trust in China is a power-accommodating and nonbinding hope rather than a rights-based and binding expectation as Chinese citizens do not have the right to grant and retract trust through free and fair elections.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lianjiang Li\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0472057529\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780472057528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Michigan Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/22\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2025 pg. 101","brand":"Lianjiang Li","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47072008995071,"sku":"9780472057528","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_265fa4ec-7119-4903-900a-46507c5eced4.jpg?v=1753415545","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/political-trust-in-china-lianjiang-li-9780472057528","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
