Party Of One

Beskrivelse

Party of One offers an insightful look into Xi Jinping’s rise and the future direction of China as a global power. Written by a seasoned journalist, it dismantles common misconceptions about China’s secretive political system and its leader.

An in-depth exploration of Xi Jinping’s leadership and China’s evolving role on the world stage.

Chun Han Wong, a respected reporter with years of experience covering China, delivers a compelling narrative that reveals the true nature of Xi Jinping’s political journey. Contrary to early hopes that Xi might usher in political openness and economic reform, this book exposes how he has skillfully concealed his intentions behind strategic ambiguity.

Through a blend of engaging storytelling and sharp analysis, Party of One details how Xi’s hardline authoritarian approach has reshaped the world’s most populous country and positioned it in direct confrontation with Western liberal democracies.

Drawing on extensive firsthand reporting, including conversations with Party insiders, grassroots members, scholars, and diplomats, Wong pieces together a clear and accessible account of Xi’s impact. He highlights how Xi has instilled both fear and fervor within the Party and across the nation.

Wong’s experience at The Wall Street Journal since 2010 has provided a front-row seat to Xi’s consolidation of power. From cracking down on corruption and dissent to controlling narratives in online spaces, businesses, schools, and even private homes, Wong’s reporting reveals the depth of Xi’s influence. After the Chinese government declined to renew his press credentials in 2019, Wong continued his coverage from Hong Kong, maintaining a close watch on Chinese politics.
