Description
Xi Jinping's rise to power has been marked by a hardline strategy that has both fascinated and alarmed observers. Chun Han Wong, a seasoned China reporter, offers a compelling and informative account of the life and political vision of the authoritarian leader of the People's Republic. Wong's insider knowledge, gained from five years in Beijing and continued writing about Xi's leadership, shatters myths and caricatures that have surrounded one of the world's most secretive political organizations and its leader. The book provides a detailed look at Xi's tactics, including his centralization of decision-making powers, encouragement of a personality cult, and movement towards indefinite rule. By examining Xi's hardline strategy, Wong sheds light on China's challenge to Western preeminence in global affairs and its authoritarian system, which has been touted as a model of governance worthy of international emulation.
