| Summary/Abstract |
In March, China’s top diplomat,
Yang Jiechi, made headlines when
he told U.S. ocials at a summit in
Alaska that they did “not have the
quali¾cation . . .to speak to China from a
position of strength.” Even afteryearsof
heightened tensions between Beijing and
Washington, the remark seemed unusually harsh, especially coming from a
seasoned diplomat.

| Summary/Abstract |
It seemed like a typical story of
Chinese corruption. Stung
suitcases full of company shares, the
businessman lavished bribes on inÄuential ocials in exchange for cheap loans
to subsidize his railroad projects.The
target of his largess, those in charge of
public infrastructure and budgets, were
his friends and business associates.

| Summary/Abstract |
XiJinping is a man on a mission.
After coming to power in late
2012,he moved rapidly to
consolidate his political authority,
purge the Chinese Communist Party
(CCP) of rampant corruption, sideline
his enemies, tame China’s once highÄying technology and ¾nancial conglomerates, crush internal dissent, and
forcefully assert China’s inÄuence on
the international stage.Inthe name of
protecting China’s “core interests,” Xi
has picked ¾ghts with many of his
neighbors and antagonized countries
farther away—especially the United
States. Whereas his immediate predecessors believed China must continue
to bide its timebyoverseeing rapid
economic growth and the steady
expansion of China’s inÄuence through
tactical integration into the existing
global order, Xi is impatient with the
status quo, possesses a high tolerance
for risk, and seems to feel a pronounced sense of urgency in challenging the international order.
