The nature of Asian politics
"The Nature of Asian Politics is a broad and thematic treatment of the fundamental factors that characterize politics in the fourteen key countries of Southeast and Northeast Asia. Bruce Gilley begins with an overview of state-society relations, then moves on to the fundamental questions of development and democracy, and finally shifts to an exploration of governance and public policy in the region. This book proposes an Asian governance model that is useful for understanding politics from Japan to Indonesia. By reviving an earlier paradigm known as oriental despotism and applying it to political theories on the Asian region, this book is likely to attract wide debate among students of Asian politics and among Western policy makers seeking to engage the region"--

Asian Politics and Housing Renewal
In: Policy & politics, Band 13, Heft 3, S. 281-303
ISSN: 1470-8442
This article focuses on an incident, a series of events in the political life of an English city. The case in question deals with a proposal to demolish over 50 houses in the Grand Union Housing Action Area in Leicester, in 1983. The demolition plan represented a desire on the part of officers and councillors of the City Council to increase the rate of replacement of the housing stock and to break away from a policy which relied almost exclusively on improvement and repair. The plan met considerable resistance from local residents, who were predominantly Asian owner-occupiers. It split the local Labour party and was eventually abandoned.
Having described the case the paper seeks to extract from it a number of general political relationships and policy considerations. The technique of using a study of the actions of individuals and groups within a particular situation to exhibit the nature of the broader social or political structure has been widely and successfully used in social anthropology (Gluckman, 1940; Epstein, 1967). While obviously limited by its particular focus, it provides a convenient and interesting way of raising important issues and opening up areas of debate.
