Abstract

Democratic elections, whatever the flaws, tend to produce a sense of social cohesion as ordinary citizens, treated as equals, gather together to select their country’s political leaders. In China, leaders are not selected by means of democratic elections. How can China secure social cohesion without national elections? We will discuss some responses from the government and from scholars and ‘ordinary people’.
