Jonathan J. Kinkel is a Lecturer in the School of Politics and Global Studies at Arizona State University, where his research has focused on the intersection between comparative politics, law and society, and Chinese studies. Beginning in 2022, he will also be affiliated with the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies at Harvard University. He is a past recipient of the Best Graduate Student Paper award from Law & Social Inquiry (LSI), and his research has appeared in journals including LSI, China Quarterly, and the Journal of East Asian Studies. This is his first book.
'Kinkel's Growth and Survival is the first book on China's legal ecosystem that rigorously addresses the reality of China as a massive country with tremendous variation in local political and legal environments. It flips the standard thinking about markets needing courts and shows how the judiciary is equally impacted by the market for legal services. Not only will this work prove essential to future research on China and authoritarian judiciaries, but it will be invaluable to anyone who seeks to interact with or better understand China and its legal system.' John Wagner Givens, Kennesaw State University 'In his ground-breaking book Growth and Survival, Kinkel creatively bridges the balkanized scholarships on courts and the legal profession in China with fine-grained empirical data and an ecological theory of judicial reform. Situating Chinese courts in both space and time, the book is an important contribution to China studies, sociolegal studies, and research on authoritarian judiciaries.'
