Abstract: Chinese President Xi Jinping has demonstrated a distinctive leadership style and established his personal dominance by setting up a number of small leading groups, reducing the decision-making authority of his politburo colleagues. He has also made himself a populist leader by using the whole party-state propaganda machine to promote his personality. The power concentration and a distinct personal leadership may help Xi push long-delayed reforms, while making decision-making more vulnerable to mistakes and power abuse.
