  • More about Xi Jinping: The Hidden Agendas of China's Ruler for Life

This book examines the policy, ideology, and politics of Xi Jinping, State President and General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and China's "ruler for life." It assesses whether the conservative supreme leaders' restitution of Maoist standards can enable China to sustain economic growth and project hard and soft power worldwide. It also provides a comprehensive picture of Xi's rise to power, his AI-assisted and "legalistic" surveillance and control mechanisms, China's evolving economic system, his foreign and national-security policies, and the implications of the 20th Party Congress of October 2022.

This comprehensive book delves into the intricate policy, ideology, and politics of Xi Jinping, the esteemed State President and General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), who holds the title of China's "ruler for life." By drawing comparisons with former CCP leaders, including Deng Xiaoping, the author assesses whether the conservative supreme leaders' restoration of Maoist standards can sustain China's economic growth and project its hard and soft power globally. Furthermore, the book explores whether the Communist Party can retain the support of 1.4 billion Chinese citizens amidst unprecedented challenges in the economic and geopolitical realms. It provides a detailed account of Xi's rise to power, his AI-assisted surveillance and control mechanisms, China's evolving economic system, his foreign and national-security policies, and the implications of the 20th Party Congress, held in October 2022, from both domestic and foreign perspectives. As one of the first books in English to comprehensively examine Xi's ambitious agendas for China until the early 2040s, this resource is invaluable for students and scholars of Chinese studies, China-US relations, East Asian politics, and Contemporary Asian history.
