Lampton tells the story of China's political elites from their own perspectives. Based on over five hundred interviews, Following the Leader offers a rare glimpse into how the attitudes and ideas of those at the top have evolved over the past four decades. Here China's rulers explain their strategies and ideas for moving the nation forward, share their reflections on matters of leadership and policy, and discuss the challenges that keep them awake at night. As the Chinese Communist Party installs its new president, Xi Jinping, for a presumably ten-year term, questions abound. How will the country move forward as its explosive rate of economic growth begins to slow? How does it plan to deal with domestic and international calls for political reform and to cope with an aging population, not to mention an increasingly fragmented bureaucracy and society? In this insightful book we learn how China's leaders see the nation's political future, as well as about its global strategic influence. 606 $aPolitical leadership$zChina 606 $aPolitical culture$zChina 607 $aChina$xPolitics and government$y1976-2002 607 $aChina$xPolitics and government$y21st century 610 $aanthropology. 610 $aasia scholars. 610 $aasian studies. 610 $abiographical. 610 $achina. 610 $achinas rulers. 610 $achinese communist party. 610 $achinese government. 610 $achinese history. 610 $achinese leaders. 610 $achinese politics. 610 $achinese society. 610 $adeng xiaoping. 610 $aeconomic growth. 610 $ahistorians. 610 $ainternational politics. 610 $amodern history. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $apolitical elites. 610 $apolitical history. 610 $apolitical leaders. 610 $apolitical party. 610 $apolitical processes. 610 $apolitical reform. 610 $apolitical strategies. 610 $apolitics. 610 $astrategic influence. 610 $axi jinping. 615 0$aPolitical leadership 615 0$aPolitical culture 676 $a320.951 700 $aLampton$b David M$0266054 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823554003321 996 $aFollowing the leader$94072692 997 $aUNINA
