Xi Jinping is the general secretary of the 18th Party Congress of CPC. The new leader faces conflicting expectations of how he will apply power to purge the party membership, reducing the tension in state-society relations, and completing the administrative reforms. This article discusses the concept of governance in the party-state and examines the operation by four indices of governance in Mainland China. We can find the political reform in China between two generations of CPC leadership, while trying to maintain the status of power structure and learning from the west at the same time. They borrow a Western reform idea, but emphasis of 'Chinese characteristics' and 'self-perfecting' in the government-sponsored governance reform has left many bugs inside the party and the state. |
