‘Going Out’ Or Staying In? The Expansion Of Chinese Ngos In Africa, Jennifer Yj Hsu, Timothy Hildebrandt, Reza Hasmath

This article examines the overseas behaviour of Chinese non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in two African nations, Ethiopia an Malawi, with varying political regime types. Our inding suggest that, irrespective of regime type, Chinese NGOs have yet to make a substantial impact in either nation. We argue that, espite the strength o the Chinese state an high level of international development assistance given, domestic politics and regulatory frameworks in host nations still matter a great deal. Our study suggests that the Chinese model of international development will continue to be one in which temporary one-off projects are favoured; and, insofar as social …

同构压力，认知群体，政府-Ngo 合作在中国, Reza Hasmath, Jennifer Yj Hsu
Reza Hasmath
该论文指出，中国政府与非政府组织（NGO）之间合作的缺乏并不能完全归咎于政府对该领域发展的限制，或是出于对一个潜在的政府反对者的害怕。与北京和上海的NGO 访谈显示， 政府与NGO 之间缺乏有意义的合作的部分原因是同构压力，以及政府对于NGO 活动认知的缺乏。事实上，证据显示，一旦政府获得了对NGO 工作的认知，它将会更加愿意与NGO 建立联系。当然必须说明的是，政府想要利用的是NGO 的物质资源，而非他们的象征性，阐释性，或是地理上的资本。

Isomorphic Pressures, Epistemic Communities And State-Ngo Collaboration In China, Reza Hasmath, Jennifer Yj Hsu
Reza Hasmath
This article suggests that a lack of meaningful collaboration between the state and NGOs in China is not solely a result of the state seeking to restrict the development of the sector, or fear of a potential opposing actor to the state. Instead, interviews with NGOs in Beijing and Shanghai suggests that a lack of meaningful engagement between the state and NGOs can be partially attributed to isomorphic pressures within state-NGO relations, and insufficient epistemic awareness of NGO activities on the part of the state. In fact, the evidence suggests that once epistemic awareness is achieved by the state, they …

The Local Corporatist State And Ngo Relations In China, Jennifer Yj Hsu, Reza Hasmath
Reza Hasmath
This article examines the Chinese state’s interactions and influences on the development of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) through a corporatist framework. It suggests that not only is the central state actively involved in the development of NGOs, but increasingly the successes of NGOs are determined by their interactions with the local state. We profile NGOs in Shanghai, of varying sizes, budgets, and issue-areas, as a case study to understand the interplay between NGOs and the local state. The article further discusses reasons behind the growing shift from central to local state influences, and the potential future implications for state-NGO relations in …
