Thesis (Ph.D.)--Princeton University, 1992.

This dissertation examines some of the theoretical assertions about technocracy and uses them as testable hypotheses in the quest for an interpretation of China's elite transformation in the 1980s. The study suggests that China is in a historical transition towards technocracy, characterized by the dominance of technical elites in power and the dissemination of technocratic ideology in society.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This dissertation examines some of the theoretical assertions about technocracy and uses them as testable hypotheses in the quest for an interpretation of China's elite transformation in the 1980s. The study suggests that China is in a historical transition towards technocracy, characterized by the dominance of technical elites in power and the dissemination of technocratic ideology in society.
520 $a Three basic questions are addressed: (1) who are technocrats? (2) how and under what circumstances do technocrats emerge? and (3) what is the meaning of technocracy? In answering these questions, this dissertation provides a critique of three major technocratic tenets: (1) the depoliticization of technocrats; (2) the functional explanation for elite transformation; and (3) the non-ideological nature of technocracy. The major lacuna in previous studies of technocracy has been a careful analysis of the linkages among three elements--characteristics of technocrats, the political movements from which technocrats have emerged, and the technocratic ideology which has justified rule by technical experts.
520 $a The empirical part of this dissertation consists of a biographical survey of Chinese elites and two case studies. Gamma coefficients and other statistical analyses are used to explore characteristics of approximately 1,200 leaders at various levels in the late 1980s. The survey demonstrates that technocrats have become a major part of leadership at all levels. The case study of Qinghua University, the cradle for Chinese technocrats, shows the crucial role that the institutional network played in the emergence of technocrats. The case study of the newspaper World Economic Herald uses content analysis to explore how technocratic values were disseminated within society during the 1980s and why the technocratic movement split before the 1989 Tiananmen tragedy.
520 $a The conclusion hypothesizes various relationships between technocracy and democracy. It traces the repeated failures of democratic movements in twentieth century China in the light of the Chinese intellectual misconception about science and democracy. The democratic possibilities of China will largely depend on both social criticism of technocratic elitism and the consolidation of the legal system that institutionalizes group conflict.
