The Communist Party must keep the Chinese economy growing (even if more slowly), while fighting rampant corruption and responding to citizens’ demands. Chinese citizens cannot vote, but they can – and do – make their displeasure known, which places a premium on what Chinese bureaucrats call “stability maintenance.”
那种恐惧是驱动习改革计划的重要力量。共产党必须保持中国经济增长（即使增长相对缓慢），同时与猖獗的腐败现象斗争，响应民众的需求。中国民众无权投票，但他们却能够表达自己的不满，这使得中国官僚所谓的“维稳”显得至关重要。
