China – The Chinese Communist Party (Eleanor Albert, Lindsay Maizland, and Beina Xu, CFR)

  • The CCP has had a monopoly on power since the Mao Zedong–led party defeated nationalist rivals and founded the People’s Republic in 1949. It has more than ninety million members.
  • Since coming to power in 2012, President Xi Jinping has consolidated control over the party. China’s legislative body ended presidential term limits, creating a path for Xi to rule indefinitely.
  • As the party celebrates its one hundredth anniversary in 2021, it faces a raft of challenges, including slow economic growth, environmental degradation, and tensions with the United States.
