This research investigation involves surveys on political culture and political participation in mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong during the winter of 1993-1994. The research provides the first empirical data on behavior and culture under these three regimes collected under a common analytic program. The project is designed around two core analytical issues. First, in these three political systems rapid changes are occurring in both political institutions and political culture (values and beliefs). The political behavior of citizens (voting, contacting government officials for favors, etc.) is also changing. By studying members of a single historical culture who are living in settings that have different developmental levels, institutional systems, and political sub-cultures, the project is able to determine whether cultural changes or insitutional changes have stronger effects on changes in individual citizens' political behavior. Second, the project analyzes the cultural dimension of regime. change. The investigation looks at citizens' attitudes in each political system toward the political authorities, the regime, and the nation, especially attitudes concerning regime legitimacy and citizen's political identifications. The researchers explore whether each political system has internal consensus or disagreement over major values; what the major issues of political value cleavage are; and, whether disagreements fall along elite- mass lines or are located among sectors of the mass population. Many of the data are designed to permit comparison with data collected in the United States, Western Europe, Russia, Japan, and elsewhere. The project provides a baseline for future studies of change in the three Chinese political systems.

本研究调查涉及1993-1994年冬季在中国大陆、台湾和香港的政治文化与政治参与调查。该研究首次提供了在一个共同的分析程序下收集的关于这三种制度下的行为和文化的经验数据。该项目围绕两个核心分析问题进行设计。首先，在这三个政治体系中，政治制度和政治文化（价值观和信仰）都发生了快速变化。公民的政治行为（投票、联系政府官员寻求帮助等）也在发生变化。通过研究生活在不同发展水平、制度体系和政治亚文化背景下的单一历史文化的成员，该项目能够确定文化变革还是制度变革对公民个人政治行为的变化有更大的影响。其次，该项目分析了政权的文化维度。改变。调查着眼于每个政治制度下的公民对政治当局、政权和国家的态度，特别是对政权合法性和公民政治认同的态度。研究人员探讨了每个政治制度是否在主要价值观上有内部共识或分歧；政治价值分裂的主要问题是什么；分歧是发生在精英和大众之间，还是发生在大众的各个阶层之间。许多数据的设计目的是为了与美国、西欧、俄罗斯、日本和其他地方收集的数据进行比较。该项目为未来研究中国三种政治制度的变化提供了一个基线。
