This book describes various crisis situations in transitional China, and by analyzing the unique characteristics and backgrounds of emergencies and crisis, it argues that crisis management has become a major challenge for the Chinese governments. It then discusses the chronology of crisis, organizational behaviors and the decision-making processes to construct a modern crisis management system in detail, to shed light on the creation of a strategic design and institutional framework of crisis management in China. In so doing, it provides not only insights into the dynamics of crisis decision-making and communication, but also solutions for possible problems specific to a transitional political regime in China.
The continuation of China’s successful rise depends considerably on the capacity of the Chinese government to prevent and manage a wide range of potential and actual crises, which could, if mishandled, have serious adverse consequences for China. These potential crises are both domestic - where the example of the collapse of the Soviet Union is well understood and remembered in China - and, increasingly, as a result of China’s ever closer involvement in the global system. This book presents a comprehensive overview of crisis management in China, and examines China’s mode of managing economic, political and military crises, as well as natural disasters, ethnic-minority issues, environmental and public health problems. In each area it considers the nature of potential crises and their possible effects, and the degree to which China is prepared to cope with crises.
This book explores how China's political system responds to crisis. A crisis is an episode whose impact cannot be controlled merely by astute on-the-ground incident management, particularly in cases involving widespread doubt about the legitimacy of established policy paradigms or the political order as a whole. Crisis can create “political windows” for advocacy groups challenging established policies in pluralist democracies. The political battle between competing definitions of an uncertain and ambiguous situation among the various actors provides them with crisis-induced opportunity space for dramatic policy change. However, the process of crisis-induced policy change, mainly by crisis framing, in non-west regimes like China has not been adequately addressed. As China's leadership foregrounds legitimacy in “victory” over COVID-19, and a new era of climate change disasters begins, this dynamic model of crisis and recuperation will offer food for thought for scholars of Chinese and global politics.
Provides the theoretical framework on how to manage crises in organizations. The author connects crisis management theories with practical examples from Chinese companies and how they contribute to better crisis management not only in Chinese organizations, but also in organizations from other countries.

In the first half of 2003, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)struck China (including Hong Kong), causing panic and claiming manylives. The unknown nature of SARS at that time also jolted theeconomic growth of China and Hong Kong, disrupted the social life oftheir citizens and created much stress and strain for their politicalsystems and governance. Like other major crises, the management of theSARS crisis provides a good opportunity to examine the strengths andweaknesses of the political systems in China and Hong Kong. From theoutset, scholars at the East Asian Institute (EAI) followed closelythe unfolding of the disease in China, particularly how each of thetwo societies coped with this random external shock. SARS may or maynot recur in the near future, but the episode has offered a glimpseinto the extent of resilience of the two societies, the quality oftheir political leadership, the effectiveness of their political andinstitutional mobilization, the crisis-management capability of theirrespective bureaucracies, and the viability of their governancesystems. This volume is the result of an EAI workshop on SARS inChina: Crises and Responses.
In this timely book about the current state of research and practice of emergency management in China, the authors take as their basic premises that we now live in a risk society and that our collective ability to deal with disasters and their aftermath is more important than ever. Set within a multi-disciplinary framework that places risk, disaster and crisis, the three phases of emergency management, on an analytical continuum, and drawing on empirical data obtained through surveys, observations, and interviews, the study not only provides a thorough overview of recent progress in our theoretical understanding of the subject but also offers insights on how scientifically informed policies can improve the way emergency management is done in China.

“The Art of Crisis "management" in China” honors the spirit of Zhu Ge Liang's invariable pragmatism which underlies the spirit of a management style in managing crisis situations that may be adopted successfully in China today. The significance of Zhu's philosophy nearly two thousand years later lies in its pragmatic relevance in managing joint ventures in China today. This book represents a collection of management crisis situations in which Zhu's approach would have prevailed if applied. For the benefit of joint venture managers in crisis situations, the collection of war stories contained herein, is presented together with excerpts from Zhu's own classic treatise on leadership and management of situations. “The Art of Crisis "management" in China” is the one book that helps smooth out relations between partners, and comfort the lonely expat managers involved in China's joint ventures.
