Modernization Modes and the Origin of Modern Political Theories YANG Guang - Bin 4
〔 Abstract〕With the rise of the topic of the “ Chinese path to modernization,”modernization research has once
again become a prominent study in Chinese academic circles. The significance of the “ Chinese path to moderni
zation”can only be more evident in comparative modernization studies,through which three major findings are
obtained. The first finding is related to the difference in modernization modes. The modernization of Britain and
the United States is driven by the business class, while that of France, Germany, and Japan is dominated by the
bureaucracy,and the modernization of Russia and China is dominated by political parties. The second finding
concerns the hierarchy of organizational forms in modernization. It progresses from the corporate system to the
bureaucratic system and ultimately to the political party system. However,for many developing countries with a
colonial legacy of fragmented politics,the major dilemma on their path to modernization is the inability of the
state to organize itself. The third finding indicates that distinct modern political theories emerge from different
modernization modes. More broadly,modern social science theories with political theory at their core develop
from different approaches to institutional change. The popular socio - centrism and state - centrism are products
of the Anglo - American modernization mode dominated by the business class and the modernization mode promo
ted by the bureaucracy, while the Russia - China modernization led by the party organization is expected to give
rise to a knowledge system of party - centrism. However,the current dominant position of the socio - centric
knowledge system cannot be ignored.

Modernization of Chinese - style Emergency Management: Connotation, Characteristics and Devel
opment Requirements YAN Ye ZUO Guang - Bing 18
〔 Abstract〕In contrast to Western emergency management, the modernization of Chinese - style emergency man
agement inherently incorporates elements of Chinese history and current national circumstances. Its essence and
components encompass management targets,agents,responsibilities,principles,and strategic objectives. Its
fundamental characteristics are rooted in its distinct historical context, inherent human qualities, cultural identi
ty, elevated political significance, and systematic approach. To align with the evolving trajectory, it becomes im
perative to construct a well - structured and scientifically sound modern Chinese - style emergency management
system. This should encompass various facets, including the internal ideological knowledge framework, the legal
framework,response procedures,a foundation for scientific research and education,national cultural mindset,
and the international landscape of a community of shared future for mankind.
