%T All That Xi Wants: China's Communist Party is Trying to Reform the Country from the Top Down %A Berger, Bernt %P 3 %V 5 %D 2018 %@ 1864-3477 %> https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0168-ssoar-56259-4 %X The Chinese Communist Party's leadership move to drop the constitutional limits ending President Xi Jinping’s tenure after two terms have been interpreted as a long-term power grab by many international media. This view however misses a crucial point: Seen in conjunction with the Central Committee's parallel decision to elevate the National Supervision commission, the leadership's step appears in a different light: It seems, the Central Committee is finally biting the bullet and embarks on reforms to consolidate the government - from the top down. How they want to control the message and also ensure co-operation by key stakeholders in this process, remains unclear. %C DEU %C Berlin %G en %9 Stellungnahme %W GESIS - http://www.gesis.org %~ SSOAR - http://www.ssoar.info
