在过去的三十年里，中国经历了志愿服务的惊人崛起，而公民社会仍然处于萌芽状态，并受到专制国家的压制。这一看似矛盾的现象暗示了国家的关键作用，这一点在现存的中国志愿服务文献中得到了充分的注意，但却很少得到检验。本研究分析了1986年至2017年间出版的103份与志愿服务相关的政府文件，探讨了国家在促进志愿服务方面的作用和动机。研究发现，中国的志愿服务已经被纳入国家的统治计划，发展了一个国家控制的志愿服务系统。它是巩固国家意识形态霸权、创新社会管理、维护社会稳定、加强党的建设、实现党的长期执政的重要手段。对未来研究的启示和建议。
China has experienced a striking rise of volunteerism in the past three decades while the civil society is still incipient and repressed by the authoritarian state. This seeming paradox alludes to the critical role of the state, which has been well noted but scarcely examined in the extant literature on Chinese volunteering. Analyzing 103 government documents associated with volunteering that were published between 1986 and 2017, this study explores the state's roles and motivations in fostering volunteerism. It finds that Chinese volunteering has been incorporated into the state's ruling scheme by developing a state-controlled volunteer service system. Volunteering is utilized for strengthening the state's ideological hegemony, implementing innovative social management for social stability, and facilitating the Chinese Communist Party's party building for its long-term rule. Implications and suggestions for future research are included.
