Does Popular Mobilisation Challenge CCP’s Legitimacy in the SCS Dispute?

You are watching Dr Andrew Chubb from Lancaster University discuss the topic of South China Seas nationalism. This in-person talk was organised by the Manchester China Institute at Oddfellows Hall on Wednesday, 19 April 2023. ____________ 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 In this talk, Dr Chubb expands on research which traces the rise of Chinese popular nationalist attitudes and actions towards the South China Sea disputes. Extensive literature on nationalism in contemporary China has generally concentrated on its manifestations in relation to Japan, the United States, or the “West” in general. While this is understandable given the prominence of former imperialist powers as foils for China’s contemporary state-sanctioned national identity, it has left a dearth of accounts of Chinese nationalism in relation to its Southeast Asian neighbours. This talk will analyse original 2013 survey data on urban residents’ perceptions of the South China Sea dispute, internet search activity data stretching back to 2006, and quasi-ethnographic observation of online discourse. The analysis shows, first, that Beijing’s more confrontational policy in the South China Sea was a key cause of intensified Chinese public sentiments on the issue. This largely unintended effect generated significant new challenges to the party-state’s control of public opinion. The case shows how the Internet reduced the CCP propaganda state’s ability to frame domestic interpretations of foreign policy developments, but retains decisive agenda-setting influence over the issue’s salience. These findings provide theoretical insight into the causes of nationalism and the socio-political consequences of network technology under authoritarian regimes. ____________ 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 Andrew Chubb is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Politics, Philosophy and Religion.
