20 years after the launch of village elections, the time is ripe to assess the progress and impact of China’s most notable political reform. Where have elections been conducted well & where have they been conducted poorly? How have procedures changed over the years & have elections truly transformed how power is exercised in the countryside? What methods are researchers employing to study elections & how have scholars from different disciplines contributed to our knowledge of grassroots politics?
