Westerners tend to divide the political world into "good" democracies and "bad" authoritarian regimes. But the Chinese political model does not fit neatly in either category. Over the past three decades, China has evolved a political system that can best be described as "political meritocracy." The China Model seeks to understand the ideals and the reality of this unique political system. How do the ideals of political meritocracy set the standard for evaluating political progress (and regress) in China? How can China avoid the disadvantages of political meritocracy? And how can political meritocracy best be combined with democracy? Daniel Bell answers these questions and more.
Opening with a critique of "one person, one vote" as a way of choosing top leaders, Bell argues that Chinese-style political meritocracy can help to remedy the key flaws of electoral democracy. He discusses the advantages and pitfalls of political meritocracy, distinguishes between different ways of combining meritocracy and democracy, and argues that China has evolved a model of democratic meritocracy that is morally desirable and politically stable. Bell summarizes and evaluates the "China model"—meritocracy at the top, experimentation in the middle, and democracy at the bottom—and its implications for the rest of the world.
A timely and original book that will stir up interest and debate, The China Model looks at a political system that not only has had a long history in China, but could prove to be the most important political development of the twenty-first century.
Daniel A. Bell is Chair Professor of the Schwarzman Scholars program at Tsinghua University in Beijing and director of the Berggruen Institute of Philosophy and Culture. His books include Spirit of Cities, China's New Confucianism, Beyond Liberal Democracy, and East Meets West (all Princeton), and he is the editor of the Princeton-China Series.

評分谈到道路选择的问题,中国大陆的人民之前所选择的共产党,选择了走共产主义道路,信奉的是马克思主义学说,就如我们在政治课本上经常读到的:中国的政治体制是非常民主的,与西方国家等伪民主不同,中国的选举不是金钱选举,虽然不是一人一票,但是采取的人民代表选举...

評分 評分這本書的問題倒不是持瞭什麼觀點,而是壓根沒抓住問題的關鍵。構建一個理想的模式誰都會(政治書裏的體製多美好),關鍵卻在於如何去討論可行性的問題。最後這本書一邊承認理想和現實存在差距並認為采用何種模式要考慮國傢的社會文化,一邊卻並沒有從現實(嚴謹的社會文化研究)中去詳細論證可行性而是一再提齣理想模式。至於民主製和精英製(尚賢製)各存在何種弊端早就被政治哲學和政治學討論爛瞭,這裏隻是把部分重復瞭一邊而已。

评分提齣的問題不錯的。
评分全書主要是錶達貝淡寜對選舉製度的痛恨,這種痛恨導緻他背叛瞭基本的道德準則。其實全書也沒有闡明事實上有個什麼樣的China Model或Political Meritocracy的製度機製(因為這也是不可能的),大多數時候隻是在談理想ideal罷瞭,所以全書的論點和論證嚴重不符。理想與現實之間的反差甚至顯得是在高級黑。學術形式很規範(但也很空洞),英語錶達太純正瞭(這就是本書能在西方引起關注的原因),我一輩子也無法達到這樣的native speaker水平。。。
