SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Government Campaigns and Policy Positioning of Businesses in China
DESCRIPTION:How do business elites express policy preferences in the presence of government campaigns in China? This talk advances a theory of strategic preference expression in authoritarian systems\, where business elites express dissent or conformity to the government based on material incentives. Their position-taking strategies vary depending on whether firms have the bargaining power to extract benefits or avoid punishment from the government.\n\nBoliang Zhu is Assistant Professor of Political Science and Asian Studies at The Pennsylvania State University.
