- W1964549351 abstract "This article is the first detailed exposition of the “National Discussion of the Draft Constitution.” In the spring and summer of 1954, Chinese engaged in a wide-ranging deliberation about political and social rights, the obligations of citizenship, state symbols, religion, political institutions and ideology. Having experienced several years of political upheaval, many asked wise-cracking, penetrating, and frequently prescient questions about law, class, and political power, and offered provocative suggestions for revising this foundational document. Using records of these meetings in archives and internal CCP publications, we argue that for citizens the constitutional discussion constituted the very first national-level “internal” expose and critique of the entirety of CCP’s governing practices, a sort of dress rehearsal for the far more famous Hundred Flowers movement of 1956, when these criticisms were aired publically. For officials, on the other hand, the constitutional discussion provided an opportunity to deploy the coercive language of “state law” to overcome resistance to collectivization and a tactic to deal with “unruly” citizens. The constitution was also perceived as a roadblock to the exercise of untrammeled political power, anticipating contemporary fears of constitutional rule. We further suggest that the 1954 national discussion set the terms of broad-based, but ultimately limited, constitutional critique, particularly in Hundred Flowers Movement but also during the Cultural Revolution, Democracy Wall, and in the more recent protests against censorship in China." @default.
