ABSTRACT

While there is broad scholarly agreement on the relationship that policy accumulation is the driver of social organization development, research on the extent to which policy accumulation triggers social organization development is still in its infancy. To address this research gap, we analyze the evolution of policy accumulation and clarify the inherent relationship between policy accumulation and the development of social organizations. Based on 471 central-level social organization policies, we show that there are 52 policy target-instrument combinations in the social organization policy area; the evolution of policy accumulation is divided into five stages; policy accumulation is continuous and drives the development of social organizations; and there is a delay effect.
