The Performative State : China’s environmental governance, COVID lockdowns, and more
This week on China Corner Office, Chris Marquis discusses environmental governance in China with Iza Ding, Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of Pittsburgh and author of the recent book The Performative State: Public Scrutiny and Environmental Governance in China. Iza explained how performative and substantive governance can diverge and discussed her on-the-ground research both in China and beyond. Iza provided an overview of the trajectory of China’s environmental protection efforts and the effects of the recent COP27 meeting. She also gave her assessment of the current state of environmentalism in China. The discussion concluded with Iza providing her thoughts on how the economic slowdown and the outcome of the 20th Party Congress will affect the future of China’s environmental governance.
