摘要

本研究主要探討媒體政治控制的權力下放至區域與地區性參與者，以及政府與市場的經濟控制的關係。其假設中國媒體有一種微妙的特質，媒體即使服從政府的審查，仍往往在不知不覺中揭露人民的各種意見。當尚未通過政黨不同階段控制查核的消息被揭露，即便政黨很少遏止與其統治合法性不相關的事情，淡然比以往更不願意在社會，甚至維護在中國各地明顯的抗議的壓迫下改變其憲法與特質。其認為政黨的崛起受到輿論對近來許多國內政策議題的直接影響。然而有一個悖論很難被忽視－看似矛盾的媒體目標，包含最近的一個挑戰－香港雨傘革命。

The study looks into decentralisation of media's political control among regional and local stakeholders, and economic control amid the market and the government. It posits that the Chinese media has subtly, often unconsciously, even while obeying the Chinese censors, exposed people to a variety of opinion. While what comes out in the media yet goes under the scanner of the party's media control at various stages, the party though rarely restrains itself from curbing anything distantly related to its legitimacy, it has become more reluctant than ever to force itself upon a society that is fast changing its constitution and character, even asserting as evident in the many protests across China. It argues that Party's rising concern to account for public opinion has of late had direct impact on many a domestic policy matters. Nevertheless, the paradox is hard to miss amid a whole lot of seemingly conflicting media goals-the latest one being the challenge to contain Hong Kong's Umbrella Revolution.
