Summary
"In a seminar held in 2011, attended by the heads of the Chinese Communist Party's propaganda departments across various government levels, Liu Yunshan, a senior Chinese propaganda official, underlined the necessity to "strengthen mainstream public opinion and reach ideological consensuses." During the Sino-Philippines arbitration case in 2016, People's Daily featured an article proclaiming, "the state's attitude and the public's stand are in unison...provid[ing] the public opinion basis and conditions for China to deal with the ...dispute." Remarks like these, which highlight the significance of establishing a consensus between the public and the state and the aspiration for unity in their actions, inspired the (mis)alignment theory of this book"-- Provided by publisher.
