Abstract:
"This book contends that the 16th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party convened in November 2002 has moved China toward an institutionally more responsible polity, internally, and externally. Focusing on leadership change, institution building and new policy orientations, scholars from the United States, China and Singapore give insightful analyses of institutionalization of succession politics, political order building, root-level democratization, and China's becoming a more responsible international player. It provides timely rich information and fresh perspectives for understanding a changing China."--BOOK JACKET.
