|
Buying stability |
- Stability maintenance fund in district and street governments to make payment to protesters - Routinized bargaining: - “big disturbance, big resolution, small disturbance, small resolution, no disturbance, no resolution” - Paying for services - Compensation by public goods and private favors - Essence is not the final payment, but the process of protest bargaining (market + mass work) |
|
Bureaucratic absorption |
- One party state has participatory, however undemocratic, channels for incorporating the people into its machinery of domination - bureaucratic and legal games: petition, mediation, arbitration, litigation, with rules the state can deploy arbitrarily and into which collective incidents can be bureaucratically processed and de-mobilized - Participation in the game generates and reproduces consent to its rules |
