Gluns, Danielle Levy, Katja This comparative research project looks at the co-operation between state and social organizations (SOs) in China and Germany. It focusses on social service delivery in the area of integration of migrating populations with special attention to the fields of education, employment, vulnerable groups and social assistance (incl. legal aid) as a crosscutting issue to all of the fields. Within this subject area, the project wants to identify different models of state-SO co-operation and analyze which models are successful and why and where this co-operation is problematic. It aims to capture the different models of co-operation in Germany and China, to analyze and compare the underlying structures and to show potentialities for development.

The history of non-profit classification in China is short and the criteria are very unstable. Since the first laws were issued in the early 20th century, there has been only one general term for non-profit organizations (NPOs), which is “association”. Classification of associations, private non-enterprise units and foundations was not done for legal purposes until the late 20th and early 21st centuries, when three regulations were formulated and promulgated, one for each type of organization. Enactment of the Law of the People's Republic of China (PRC) on Donations for Public Welfare (1999), the Charity Law of the PRC (2016) and the General Provisions of the Civil Law of the PRC (2017) shows that the Chinese government is deepening and systematizing its regulation of non-profit entities. However, recent legislation such as the Regulation on the Administration of the Registration of Social Organizations (called the Draft) does not effectively connect the classification of organizations and legal persons with the laws above, nor use terms such as charity and public welfare in uniform ways. On the one hand, discussion of the classification of organizations, legal persons, public welfare and charitable entities shows that the classification of non-profit entities in China has always taken political classification as its core standard, and that the idea behind this approach is very coherent. On the other hand, the classification of non-profit entities is also constantly shaped by the social environment. There is always tension and some degree of rupture between the modern concept of charity introduced from abroad, the classification of legal persons, and the traditional Chinese culture of charity. Due to the absence of a law on non-profit organizations, it is difficult to establish connections and mutual coherence among the General Provisions of the Civil Law of the PRC, the Charity Law and the Draft.

What are the processes and patterns of co-production in service provision? The paper begins by introducing the transition in the logic of service provision in the public sector from New Public Management to New Governance Theory. Then it elucidates the state of rural public service provision in China, especially child-related services. It then introduces a case that employs a co-production model in delivering child welfare services in rural China. By comparing the different intervention effects of the co-production versus the government-centric model, the paper argues that the co-production model is a dynamic way to deliver public services.
