  • Xi's System, Xi's Men: After the March 2018 National People's Congress
    Xi’s System, Xi’s Men: After the March 2018 National People’s Congress Barry Naughton The National People’s Congress meeting in March launched a significant administrative reorganization and approved the appointment of a new generation of economic technocrats. The technocrats are skilled and generally support market-oriented reforms. The reorganization is generally market-friendly, but its main purpose is to create a more disciplined and accountable administration to serve as an instrument for Xi Jinping. Last year, after the 19th Communist Party Conference in October, Xi Jinping laid out a general economic program for the next three years. This March, at the 13th session of the National People’s Congress, Xi introduced significant changes in the administrative structure and fleshed out the personnel assignments that will prevail for the next few years. These changes demonstrate once again how firmly Xi is in control of economic policy and personnel. Even if Xi had not also changed the constitution to eliminate term limits for the president (himself) and vice-president, these changes would be enough to demonstrates Xi’s power and ruling style. The policy framework laid out at the end of 2017 allows space for renewed system reforms. As explained in the previous contribution to CLM, successful economic management in 2017 has permitted Xi to prefer “high quality” growth over “high speed” growth, and in particular to launch “three battles”: reducing financial risk; eliminating poverty; and improving the environment.1 While deepening economic conflicts with the United States have certainly complicated the policy environment, until now the Xi administration has stuck to this basic policy orientation.

Tradicinių nusidavimų romanų kontekste jis apima daugybę pasakojimo būdų – realistinį, psichologinį, simbolinį, fantastinį. Parašytas kasdiene kalba (Pekino dialektu), jis tapo svarbus moderniosios, standartinės kinų kalbos (putong hua) formavimo šaltiniu naujojo kultūros judėjimo procese nuo praeito amžiaus 3-iojo dešim- tmečio. Mao Zeddongo labai vertinamam romanui komunistai bandė uždėti „progresyvų“ antspaudą. Romano paslėpta religinė (budizmo) intencija liko nepastebėta nei skaitytojų, nei religijotyrininkų.

  • Leadership Changes Afoot at China Investment Corporation
    The Sovereign Wealth Fund Initiative Spring 2013 Leadership Changes Afoot at CIC Patrick J. Schena Jonathan Brookfield1 As we write this, the executive leadership of the China Investment Corporation is in flux. Its inaugural Chairman, Lou Jiwei, has just stepped away from the CIC to lead the Ministry of Finance, and despite several reports placing Guo Shuqing, head of the China Securities Regulatory Commission and former Chairman of China Construction Bank, in the Chairmanship of the CIC, he was recently appointed to be Deputy Party Secretary of Shandong Province.2 Although several other individuals with executive experience in international finance and banking have been mentioned for the position, including Li Jiange, Chairman of China International Capital Corp, and Jiang Jianqing, Chairman of ICBC, to date, no appointment has been made. While it is not really our intent here to try to forecast Chinese leadership appointments, given that a new Chairman may be appointed imminently, we do aim to suggest a view on some challenges the new Chairman is likely to face and the qualifications we believe will be required to navigate them successfully. 1 The authors are respectively Adjunct Assistant Professor and Associate Professor at the Fletcher School, Tufts University. Both are Associates in Research at the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies, Harvard University. Patrick Schena is also Co-Head of Fletcher’s Sovereign Wealth Fund Initiative 2 See “Chief Regulator Guo Shuqing Tipped as Shandong Governor”, South China Morning Post, 13 Mar 2013 accessed http://www.scmp.com/news/china/article/1189477/chief-securities-regulator-guo-shuqing-tipped-shandong- governor.

  • CHINA POLICY UPDATE 23 April 2021
    CHINA POLICY UPDATE 23 April 2021 China’s anti-trust crackdown gets real By Torsten Weller, China Policy Analyst China’s new anti-monopoly crackdown is being driven more by bureaucratic actors than personal rivalries Growing concerns over unsustainable consumer debt have put tech firms in direct conflict with financial regulators Politically-backed reformers like Guo Shuqing are often crucial in pushing forward reforms and enforcing new rules. Summary In early April Chinese tech juggernaut Alibaba was dealt a regulatory double whammy. On 10 April China’s market regulator, the State Administration of Market Regulation (SAMR), fined the company a record-breaking RMB 18.2 billion (~£2 billion) for ‘serious anti-trust violations’. The fine was equivalent to 4% of Alibaba’s revenue in 2019. Two days later, the People’s Bank of China (PBoC) – China’s central bank – also ordered Ant Group to separate its lending business from its mobile payment platform Alipay. The PBoC further asked the company to apply for a credit reporting certificate. The resulting restructuring will probably reduce Ant to a payment services platform, depriving it of its lucrative digital finance business which last year contributed nearly two thirds of its revenue1. The Western media has portrayed Alibaba’s woes mostly as a dramatic clash of egos at the top of Chinese politics and business. Both the Financial Times2 and The Wall Street Journal3 have published pieces attributing the recent crackdown to the conflict between Alibaba founder Jack Ma’s pugnacious personality and Chinese leader Xi Jinping’s obsession with loyalty. Yet while personal animosities might have played a role in recent developments, they provide an incomplete explanation for the regulatory activism that has been underway for some time regarding China’s major tech companies.

  • Toward a Maoist Dream of the Red Chamber: Or, How Baoyu and Daiyu Became Rebels Against Feudalism
    Journal of chinese humanities 3 (���7) �77-�0� brill.com/joch Toward a Maoist Dream of the Red Chamber: Or, How Baoyu and Daiyu Became Rebels Against Feudalism Johannes Kaminski Postdoctoral Researcher, Academia Sinica, Taiwan [email protected] Abstract Mao Zedong’s views on literature were enigmatic: although he coerced writers into “learning the language of the masses,” he made no secret of his own enthusiasm for Dream of the Red Chamber, a novel written during the Qing dynasty. In 1954 this para- dox appeared to be resolved when Li Xifan and Lan Ling presented an interpretation that saw the tragic love story as a manifestation of class struggle. Ever since, the conception of Baoyu and Daiyu as class warriors has become a powerful and unques- tioned cliché of Chinese literary criticism. Endowing aristocratic protagonists with revolutionary grandeur, however, violates a basic principle of Marxist orthodoxy. This article examines the reasons behind this position: on the one hand, Mao’s support for Li and Lan’s approach acts as a reminder of his early journalistic agitation against arranged marriage and the social ills it engenders. On the other hand, it offers evidence of Mao’s increasingly ambiguous conception of class. Keywords class struggle – Dream of the Red Chamber – Hong Lou Meng – Mao Zedong – On Contradiction literature * I am grateful to the Academia Sinica in Taipei, in particular to the Department of Chinese Literature and Philosophy.
