Abstract

As Xi Jinping took the reins of the Communist Party of China (CPC) as its General Secretary at the 18th Party Congress in November 2012, he made it clear he would take the People’s Republic of China to a new stage of development—one of deepening reform. This was not just about rebalancing the economy but also about substantially improving governance and enhancing the role China would play in the world. Xi’s accession to power at the 18th Congress marked the turning of a new chapter in the era of post-Mao reforms.
