The project has five main responsibilities: (1) to carry out coordinated surveys at regular intervals designed to measure citizens’ political values, political support, evaluation of regime performance and quality of governance, and political participation; (2) to publish research results and organize international academic activities based on East Asia’s experience with democratization; (3) to develop expertise in social survey research, democracy research, and related fields in developing countries in the region; (4) develop an electronic dataset for use by researchers, government bodies, international organizations, democracy advocacy groups, civil society groups, and the media in order to further disseminate research findings; (5) work in coordination with the GBS to construct a global indicator of democratic development and quality of governance, and provide authoritative reports to intergovernmental organizations such as the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance and the United Nations Development Programme. The project carries out systematic empirical research on democratic transition, consolidation, and operation in Asia. The research structure incorporates four main paradigms in comparative politics: modernization and post-modernism, neo-institutionalism, political culture theory, and rational choice theory. Asia’s experience with democracy offers an important opportunity to reevaluate these paradigms, and in addition provides the opportunity for East Asian and Western scholars to engage in theoretical dialogue. The next wave of the survey will incorporate the debate on East Asian exceptionalism. It will analyze the impact of traditional culture, state institutions, socioeconomic modernization, and the international environment on the process of transition in Asia. In particular, it will examine why various types of hybrid regime still dominate the region. It will ask why semi-democratic or non-democratic regimes in the region have been able to adapt successfully to both socioeconomic change and pressure from outside. It will also attempt to clarify whether these regimes have very different sources of legitimacy to democratic regimes. In the first half of the five year project, the following research objectives will be achieved: (1) clean and analyze data from the third wave survey, develop cross-national and cross-level research techniques, and plan joint publications; (2) begin the second wave of the South Asian Barometer Survey (SABS) in collaboration with the South Asia research team; (3) make preparations for the fourth wave of the ABS, design core questions for the new wave, and coordinate pre-testing; and (4) design and maintain the project website, disseminate cross-national data, and expand and update the ABS online databank. In the second half of the five year project, the following research objectives will be achieved: (1) work on a common publication plan for the East Asia and South Asia regions; (2) carry out the fourth wave of the Asian Barometer Survey, coordinate research schedules, and oversee sampling design and interview quality control in each country and region; (3) clean and analyze data from the fourth wave of the Asian Barometer Survey and publish preliminary research findings; (4) make preparations for the third wave of the South Asian Barometer Survey; and (5) design and maintain the project website, disseminate cross-national data, and expand and update the ABS online databank.東亞南亞民主化調查民主品質價值變遷公民政治East AsiaSouth AsiaDemocratizationSurveyQuality of DemocracyValue ChangeCitizen Politics
