China’s Strategic Pursuit under Xi Jinping and the New Era

Chapter Chapter 9 in The Strategic Logic of China’s Economy, 2024, pp 259-279 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The ascent of Xi Jinping to the triumvirate of leadership positions—Secretary-General of the CCP and Chairman of the Central Military Commission in 2012, and head of state as President of the People’s Republic of China in 2013—was a critical inflection point in China’s long-run strategic pursuit. His appointment to second and third terms in these positions five and ten years later, the enshrinement of his eponymous philosophy in the CCP Constitution in 2017, the contemporaneous statement that Xi was the CCP’s “core”, the CCP Central Committee declaring Xi Jinping Thought to be “the essence of Chinese culture” in late 2021, alongside his drafting of only the third resolution on history in the CCP’s 100 years of existence, have a cumulative evidentiary force.
