A Note on the 18th Party Congress of the CCP: Personnel Changes and Factional Alliances

Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review

Abstract

The 18th Party Congress was more dramatic than anticipated due to the completely non-transparent process of selecting new leaders as well as a number of scandals involving leaders competing for the top posts. This contrasts with 2002 when Hu Jintao became secretary general in a comprehensive change of power that took place without much drama.
