China's new political succession is the object of this volume, with contributions by some of the best political scientists. The authors answer the following questions and issues: profiling and understanding general secretary Hu Jintao, along with the new leaders after the 16th Party Congress, opening the way to a "fourth generation" in Chinese politics; assessing the influence of former president Jiang Zemin who has kept control of China's Central Military Commissions; estimating the People's Liberation Army relation with the political system; exploring the values of a political system that faces, among other symptoms, pervasive corruption in the midst of fast economic growth; finally, judging the degree of institutional stability that the Chinese Communist Party manages to attain, and the limits that still exist to the rule of law. This book will be useful to anyone who wants to understand the coming changes of China after a quarter of a century of reform and growth.
