Abstract: With recent reshuffles at the provincial level, Chinese President Xi Jinping has been consolidating power in preparation for the 19th Party Congress in 2017. Since early 2016, more than 40 political stars have been promoted or transferred to new provincial posts. Only the party chiefs and governors of Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing, Guangdong and Tibet have retained their positions since 2013. Substantial changes to the leadership in these regions are expected before the 19th Party Congress.
