Abstract
THE NINETEENTH Communist Party Congress
in October put the coping stone on Xi Jinping’s
ascendancy over the Chinese Communist Party
(CCP), and ensured the Party’s continuing central
role in China’s political, social, and economic life.1
Xi’s key message to the Congress was that China had
finally emerged as a global power. But the Party will
continue to face growing social, environmental,
and economic challenges. How well it meets them
will depend on Xi’s capacity to exercise the supreme
power he has been given.
