Abstract:
In recent years, the Chinese Communist Party has experimented with a variety
of mechanisms designed to improve bottom-up accountability and information
flow within a fundamentally authoritarian single-party system. These include
the institution of village elections, the relaxation of restrictions on
journalists, and a more tolerant attitude toward small-scale protests, among
other developments. The most recent such innovation has been the
introduction of national regulations mandating the increased sharing of
government-collected information. We exploit a newly released index of
environmental transparency in Chinese cities to understand what political
and economic barriers may inhibit or encourage a shift toward this new model
of authoritarian rule. This exercise generates two key results. First, the
financial strength of a city’s government is a crucial determinant of
transparency. Establishing the institutions to collect, organize, and
disseminate information is costly and remains a low priority for cash-
strapped local governments. Secondly, the legacies of the planned economy
still have a major influence over what municipal governments are willing or
(politically) able to do. Cities whose economies are relatively dependent on
a single industrial firm tend to resist implementing transparency
requirements when compared to those dealing with a less concentrated
industrial base. | T**********t
