520 |a This book explores the petition(信访), a political system with Chinese characteristics. It is an important form of political participation for people at the bottom and an effective means of supervising officials at the grassroots level for the higher-level government. Through a half-year investigation of the Public Security Bureau, the author found that the operational logic of the petition seems to be different from the past, and it is the change of petition logic that leads to the dilemma that “the cost of petitioning is reduced but the road of rights protection is narrowed,” or in other words, it's easier to make a petition but harder to succeed. This work from the grassroots of China's legal system will interest China scholars and political sociologists.
