520    "Who watches over the party-state? In this engaging 
       analysis, Maria Repnikova reveals the webs of an uneasy 
       partnership between critical journalists and the state in 
       China. More than merely a passive mouthpiece or a 
       dissident voice, the media in China also plays a critical 
       oversight role, one more frequently associated with 
       liberal democracies than with authoritarian systems. 
       Chinese central officials cautiously endorse media 
       supervision as a feedback mechanism, as journalists carve 
       out space for critical reporting by positioning themselves
       as aiding the agenda of the central state. Drawing on rare
       access in the field, Media Politics in China examines the 
       process of guarded improvisation that has defined this 
       volatile partnership over the past decade on a routine 
       basis and in the aftermath of major crisis events. 
       Combined with a comparative analysis of media politics in 
       the Soviet Union and contemporary Russia, the book 
       highlights the distinctiveness of Chinese journalist-state
       relations, as well as the renewed pressures facing them in
       the Xi era." -- Provided by publisher
