Participation in politics is a topic of fundamental interest to                 scholars in political science.  Who particpates, how they                       participate, and why, have always been questions that occupy a                  central place in the study of American political behavior.                      Despite the interest in the political participation of Americans,               relatively few investigations have been conducted cross                         nationally.  This Doctoral Dissertation Research Project promises               to attend to this deficiency by undertaking a nationwide survey                 of political participation in the People's Republic of China.                   The universe sampled for this study includes the total non-                     institutionalized population of mainland China who are eighteen                 years or older, except those who live in Sinjiang and Tibet.  The               interviews will be conducted face-to-face by professional                       interviewers from the Institute of Social Survey and by students                from Beijing University.                                                                                                                                        The investigation will assess the modes and levels of political                 participation in China and the impacts of socioeconomic status,                 institutional affiliation, political history and political                      attitude on political behavior.  The study is cast within the                   theoretical framework developed for the classic study of American               political participation undertaken in the late l960's by Sidney                 Verba, et. al.  The investigation will examine the modes of                     political participation aimed at influencing the decision-making                process of the government and will also explore additional modes                which people may use to cast influence at the policy                            implementation stage.  The data from China will be compared  with               data previously gathered from other countries and will serve as                 an important basis for understanding political participation                    in the People's Republic of China.
