    About this ebook

    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 politicsan 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 normsmay 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.
