Research Forum Lecture Xueguang ZHOU (Stanford University): "The spatial mobility of local officials in the Chinese bureaucracy: Some preliminary findings and their implications." 
This talk introduces a current research project of Prof. Xuegang Zhou that analyzes patterns of spatial mobility in a large Chinese bureaucracy. He proposes a theoretical model of stratified mobility and discuss its empirical implications. The rest of the talk reports some preliminary findings on these patterns and considers their implications for governing China. 

ABOUT
Xueguang Zhou is the Kwoh-Ting Li Professor in Economic Development, a professor of sociology and a senior fellow at the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies of Stanford University. His main area of research is institutional changes in contemporary Chinese society, focusing on Chinese organizations and management, social inequality, and state-society relationships.

One of Zhou's current research projects is a study of the rise of the bureaucratic state in China. He works with students and colleagues to conduct participatory observations of government behaviors in the area of environmental regulation enforcement, in policy implementation, in bureaucratic bargaining, and in incentive designs. With colleagues and students, he also studies patterns of career mobility and personnel flow among different government offices to understand intra-organizational relationships in the Chinese bureaucracy.
