Understanding Chinese politics has become more important than ever.
Some argue that China's political system is 'institutionalized' or
that 'win all/lose all' struggles are a thing of the past, but,
Joseph Fewsmith argues, as in all Leninist systems, political power
is difficult to pass on from one leader to the next. Indeed, each
new leader must deploy whatever resources he has to gain control
over critical positions and thus consolidate power. Fewsmith traces
four decades of elite politics from Deng to Xi, showing how each
leader has built power (or not). He shows how the structure of
politics in China has set the stage for intense and sometimes
violent intra-elite struggles, shaping a hierarchy in which one
person tends to dominate, and, ironically, providing for periods of
stability between intervals of contention.
