Doctoral Candidate Guo Yongliang is invited to give a speech.

This dissertation concludes that the “Elite Model” adopted by China in the process of counter-terrorism is also universally adopted by other countries, which has an internal defect and is also challenged by external environment. The social power need to be embedded structurally into the counter-terrorism work, forming a new “Participation Model”. The core of participative model is the public participation rights of counter-terrorism. At this current stage, the public shall be encouraged to actively use their public participation rights which are a feasible way to promote the transition of counter terrorism model in China.
