The Chinese political economy is like no other system, now or in history.
Under the leadership of Xi Jinping, the system of government has been transformed into a new regime, radically harder than the legacy of Deng Xiaoping. Stein Ringen argues that China is less strong economically and more dictatorial politically than the world has wanted to believe. How does this system work exactly, and where is it heading? What is the balance of pragmatism and ideology among the leadership? and is there a ‘totalitarianism with Chinese characteristics’? Join us for a discussion with Stein Ringen of these questions from his latest book ‘The Perfect Dictatorship: China in the 21st Century’.

We invite Stein Ringen, Emeritus Professor at the University of Oxford to discuss.
