\n

In our increasingly connected and permanently interactive modern societies, the propensity to rate and evaluate everything is increasing. Whether to assess a phone call, rate a delivery service or medical appointment, or pass an opinion on a photograph or article etc., individuals\/consumers\/citizens are regularly called upon to express their opinions. But beyond these individual demands, which are controversial in themselves, we are also seeing institutional control systems developing, based on rating systems, like the one established in China in the late 1990s which has been markedly reinforced in the last ten years or so. Might Orwell\u2019s \u2018Big Brother\u2019 have passed from fiction into reality, as many western commentators on the Chinese Social Credit System (SCS) fear?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emmanuel Dubois de Prisque takes another look at the SCS here, showing how this system \u2014 inspired by Western practices for assessing the ability of economic actors to repay their borrowing \u2014 has wormed its way into the daily lives of Chinese citizens. He highlights the aims of the Chinese leaders in this connection (in particular, to promote virtuous human behaviour and trust), and the extent to which these are entirely consistent with China\u2019s long cultural and political traditions. Emmanuel Dubois de Prisque stresses the dangers and drawbacks of the SCS where individual rights and freedoms are concerned, but he also shows the improvements it has brought about in China. Lastly, he ponders the possibility of such a system being exported to Western societies, though he does find this improbable at the moment, given the demands of those societies in terms of individual liberty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
