The Political Thought of Xi Jinping
"The 20th Congress of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) held in October 2022 was a historic occasion. It marked the start of Xi Jinping's third term as the top leader of China, and ended the post-Mao convention that the top leader retires after serving two terms of five years each. For all intents and purposes, it was also the beginning of Xi's time as leader for life, a development not supposed to recur after the death of Mao Zedong in 1976. It was not meant to be historic in other ways. The meeting took place in Beijing in line with long-standing practices with all the post-Mao institutions and rules in place. It was reassuringly dull and predictable until the last day"--
On XI Jinping
In On Xi Jinping, former Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd provides an authoritative account of the worldview driving Chinese behavior on the world stage. Focusing on domestic policy, political economy, and foreign policy, Rudd argues that President Xi Jinping's worldview differs significantly from those of the leaders who preceded him and highlights how the shift has impacted policy. A powerful analysis of the worldview of arguably the most consequential world leader of our era, this will be essential reading for anyone interested in how Xi is transforming both China and the international order.
From Confucius to Xi Jinping
This book analyzes Chinese politics, particularly the rule of Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leaders from Mao Zedong to Xi Jinping, through an examination of the country’s political ideology. This book succinctly covers the DNA of Chinese politics through the philosophies of sages in China’s first liberalization period during the Warring States epoch, principally those of Confucius, Mencius, Lao Zi, Zhuang Zi, Shang Yang and Han Fei. With an appreciation of these traditional ideologies, this book displays how Chinese political philosophy (which incorporates elements of Confucianist and especially Legalist thinking) has influenced ideas and policies from as early as the Qin and Han dynasti...
Xi Jinping, China, and the United States
As Xi Jinping begins his historic third term in office, many will try to understand Xi as both person and leader. This book examines Xi Jinping from his childhood during China’s Cultural Revolution all the way through his second term as China’s paramount leader. The author analyzes not only Xi Jinping’s life and leadership but also Western perceptions, assessments, and interpretations of Xi and how this has affected China’s dynamic relationship with the West. It will trace how early and mostly optimistic expectations gave way first to denial or attempts to explain away his consolidation of power and then reshaped into the assessment of a new China under a powerful Xi. The book gives special attention to the vital US–China relationship and the dynamics between Xi and the US leadership.
Film History and Screen Culture in and beyond Greater China
Bringing together work from established and emerging scholars and practitioners from around the world, this collection expands existing scholarship on cinemas of the Sinosphere by revealing forgotten and emerging aspects of film history. Organised chronologically, individual chapters cover geographic regions of mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan to engage with key issues of film history and screen politics that are overlooked by the traditional canon of Chinese cinema. Tackling key debates on (post)colonialism, (cold)war, and their sociopolitical impacts on screen culture in these regions, this collection challenges the binary paradigms that are perpetuated in the historical scholarship o...
