About this book

Scholars from China, Singapore and the U.S. use the opportunity of the 16th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party to explore the issue of leadership change in China, and its impact on institution building and foreign policy there.

Reviews

"Chinese politics has become less crisis-driven in the past decade, but it has not become less complex. Changes in society and in the role of the Communist Party of China have put a divided and hesitant central leadership on the edge of major political reform. These scholars use their intimate familiarity with China's current realities to provide a comprehensive analysis of the trends shaping China's political choices and the dilemmas facing the leadership as it attempts to govern a changing China."
