    Chinese politics in the Xi Jinping era: Reassessing collective leadership

    No full text
    Chinese politics are at a crossroads as President Xi Jinping amasses personal power and tests the constraints of collective leadership. In the years since he became general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party in 2012, Xi Jinping has surprised many people in China and around the world with his bold anti corruption campaign and his aggressive consolidation of power. Given these new developments, we must rethink how we analyze Chinese politics-an urgent task as China now has more influence on the global economy and regional security than at any other time in modern history. Chinese Politics in the Xi Jinping Era examines how the structure and dynamics of party leadership have evolved since the late 1990s and argues that “inner-party democracy”-the concept of collective leadership that emphasizes deal making based on accepted rules and norms-may pave the way for greater transformation within China’s political system. Xi’s legacy will largely depend on whether he encourages or obstructs this trend of political institutionalization in the governance of the world’s most populous and increasingly pluralistic country. Cheng Li also addresses the recruitment and composition of the political elite, a central concern in Chinese politics. China analysts will benefit from the meticulously detailed biographical information of the 376 members of the 18th Central Committee, including tables and charts detailing their family background, education, occupation, career patterns, and mentor-patron ties.link_to_subscribed_fulltex

    The Re-imagining of China under President Xi Jinping

    No full text
    This article explains how Xi Jinping is consolidating an identity for China, at home and abroad, which draws upon the country’s past more than upon its recent revolutionary history. In so doing, he appears to be acknowledging the desire of many, perhaps the majority, of Chinese people, to defend their culture against conversion; he is also providing an ideology to inspire the young and the servants of the state, offering an alternative to ‘westernisation’ and, in effect, replacing the now discredited Marxism-Leninism of his predecessors. Rather than rejecting China’s past as they did, Xi speaks of a renaissance of it. The implications for international relations are substantial. The writer suggests that Westerners should welcome this, as the ideology is not missionary or universalist, but advances stability and respect for difference as fundamentals of its approach to the wider world

    Challenges against Xi Jinping: an ASEAN Perspective

    No full text
    Since the death of Mao Zedong in 1976 and Deng Xiaoping in 1997, factionalism and power struggle as the characteristic of leadership change in China has ended. Although factionalism still exists, it has been converted to collaboration among all factions within the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The election of Xi Jinping to the presidency of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and to the position as General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is therefore, as the result of cooperation among factions. This paper discusses various challenges, including nationalism as the most serious issue faced by Xi Jinping as a leader elected through compromise

    Legalism and Xi Jinping thought: Han Fei's influence on contemporary Chinese politics and law

    No full text
    The chapter explores the extent to which Han Fei and Chinese Legalism inform Xi Jinping Thought and therefore contemporary Chinese politics. It examines Xi’s China Dream, and specific policy initiatives including the concentration of power in his hands, the anti-corruption campaigns against officials, the use of law as an instrument of the state, and the significant investment in the military to argue that all these initiatives follow closely Han Fei’s advice on how to make a state wealthy and powerful. It concludes by noting that Xi is not unique in this respect—Chinese leaders have historically resorted to Legalism in times of political instability and uncertainty.No Full Tex

    No full text
    Today, Xi Jinping is still going strong to change the World and set the tone for the following decades without no one knowing why or how he does it. The objective of the present research is to know Xi Jinping as the leader of China through the analysis of his own written speeches in “The Governance of China I” (2014). Xi Jinping’s Thought is very oriented towards the People and it is the Party’s mission to deliver the message of national rejuvenation: a call for all Chinese people to come together as one to build a great nation. Xi Jinping relies on Chinese socialism to build the Chinese model society towards satisfying the concerns of the Chinese people. Xi Jinping is on a life term as Chinese Leader and this will allow the Chinese Chairman to consolidate more power. Xi Jinping needs stability inside the CCP and so maintaining the political system is fundamental to deliver the reforms China needs for continuing to grow to its maximum potential. I conclude the Dissertation by covering several considerations that the Literature has on Xi Jinping’s leadership. Xi is a nationalist at his core. The “Chinese Dream” was designed to build the best version of the Chinese society together with socialism as the core values of the Chinese culture. Xi Jinping is China’s greatest supporter and will portray the Chinese nation as an example to the world. (Xi, The Governance of China I, 2014) .Hoje, Xi Jinping está a mudar o mundo e definir o tom para as décadas seguintes sem que ninguém saiba como o faz. Esta dissertação tem como propósito identificar os valores e crenças de Xi Jinping. O objetivo da presente tese foi conhecer Xi Jinping como líder da China através da análise dos seus próprios discursos políticos publicados no livro “A Governança da China I” (2014). O pensamento de Xi Jinping é muito orientado para o seu povo e incumbe o partido Comunista Chinês a missão de transmitir a mensagem de rejuvenescimento nacional: um apelo a todo o povo chinês para se unir como um para construir uma grande nação no mundo. Xi Jinping parte da ideologia do socialismo chinês para construir a sociedade modelo chinesa e para satisfazer as preocupações do povo chinês. Xi Jinping será líder da China até ao final da sua vida e isso permitirá ao presidente Chinês consolidar mais poder. Xi Jinping precisa de estabilidade dentro do PCC e, portanto, manter o sistema político é fundamental para realizar as reformas que a China precisa para continuar a crescer ao seu potencial máximo. Concluo a dissertação tendo em conta várias considerações que a literatura tem sobre a liderança de Xi Jinping. Xi nutre um grande sentimento nacionalista. Xi Jinping deseja que a China seja líder no contexto político internacional e assim o Presidente Chinês fará tudo o que estiver ao seu alcance para melhorar o seu país
