Abstract:Government-society cooperation in public services has become common practice, but the process of policy advocacy driven by service-oriented social organizations still lacks explicit explanation. Based on an extensive advocacy alliance framework, this work examines the process and mechanism of service-oriented social organizations establishing government-society cooperative alliance and their policy learning. Based on a close case study, this work finds that: first, service-oriented social organizations take advantage of the political opportunities brought about by changes in “relatively stable parameters” such as governance modernization to form loose government-society cooperation, and leverage the “external events of subsystems” of the mass group reform to build a close government-society cooperative alliance bonded by mass group. Second, the government-society cooperative alliance carries out “experimental learning” based on the principle of “iteration and recursion” of policies, and reach consensus in policy through the stages from venture capital demonstration and exploration, horizontal comparative experiment to authoritative promotion and diffusion. Third, whether forming alliances or policy learning, service-oriented social organizations and mass groups are the key “dual policy brokers”, mobilizing local governments to support advocacy alliances through “professional plans” and “network intermediaries” respectively. The research conclusion provides a theoretical explanation for service-oriented policy advocacy of social organizations in the new era and enriches the domestic research on the advocacy alliance framework.
