中国地方政府官员的空间流动:层级分流模式与经验证据

政府官员的空间流动是中国国家治理和政府人事管理的一个重要制度安排。本文以周雪光（2016）的“层级分流”模式为出发点，提出政府官员空间流动与块上流动二元结构的实证假设，并发展出有关的概念工具和测量来分析政府人事流动网络结构。在此基础上，本文对某省1990-2008年间地级市与（部分）区、县、县级市及其所属机构主要官员人事流动的经验资料进行了系统性、整体性分析，主要包括：（1）层级分流的基本趋向；（2）条块权力结构；（3）块上流动形成的地方性人事网络结构诸方面。

Stratified Mobility in Chinese Bureaucracy: A Model and Empirical Evidence

Spatial mobility among officials has been an important mechanism of political control in China's governance. We propose a model of stratified mobility across administrative jurisdictions to explain patterns of spatial mobility in the Chinese bureaucracy, and develop related concepts, typologies, and measures for our empirical analyses. We illustrate our theoretical arguments using empirical findings of spatial mobility in a large bureaucracy-local governments in one province of China, from 1990 to 2008. This research contributes to the study of the Chinese bureaucracy by (1) providing baselines for the key empirical patterns of mobility among offices and across administrative levels; (2) developing a set of concepts, categories and related measurements for characterizing social network structures resulting from personnel flow across government offices.
