国家与社会之外:市场化逻辑何以塑造社会组织——评《中国社会组织发展研究的市场维度》

Beyond State and Society:How Market Logic Shapes Social Organizations--Comments on The Market Dimension of China's Social Organization Development Research

随着我国社会主义市场经济体制的逐步完善,市场经济为社会组织的发展提供了强劲的资源动力。但从市场维度出发,对我国社会组织发展加以翔实分析的研究相对而言较为欠缺。在《中国社会组织发展研究的市场维度》一书中,赖伟军通过生动描述若干案例,并辅之以访谈、统计数据,条理清晰地向读者展示了基金会资助实践中的市场要素植入过程,并重点探讨了非营利市场化可能对我国民间非营利组织带来哪些潜在制度性影响。该书在一定程度上跳出了“国家—社会”关系框架的窠臼,反映了社会组织领域研究者在研究策略上的新进展,对于推动中国社会组织理论创新研究具有重要的参考和启示意义,也有一定的政策意涵。

With the gradual improvement of China's socialist market economy system,the market economy has provided strong resource impetus for the development of social organizations.However,research analyzing the development of social organizations in China from a market perspective is relatively lacking.In the book“The Market Dimension of China's Social Organization Development Research”,Lai Weijun vividly describes several cases and supplements them with interviews and statistical data,systematically presenting to readers the process of embedding market elements in foundation funding practices.The book also focuses on exploring the potential institutional impacts of non-profit marketization on grassroots non-profit organizations in China.To some extent,this book breaks out of the confines of the“state-society”relationship framework,reflecting new progress in research strategies among researchers in the field of social organizations.It holds significant reference and enlightening value for promoting theoretical innovation and research on Chinese social organizations,and also contains certain policy implications.
