Abstract
THE NINETEENTH Communist Party Congress in October put the coping stone on Xi Jinpings ascendancy over the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and ensured the Partys continuing central role in Chinas political, social, and economic life.1 Xis key message to the Congress was that China had finally emerged as a global power. But the Party will continue to face growing social, environmental, and economic challenges. How well it meets them will depend on Xis capacity to exercise the supreme power he has been given.
