Five years after this book was first published, much has changed within China and in its relationship with the world. This second edition provides extensive fresh new material. It explains how China has raised its game, moving from a catch-up mode to technological innovation in some areas, while still languishing in technology dependence in other respects. Earlier, China had shown signs that its driving spirit was faltering with its sails flapping. Under Xi Jinping, renewed energy has been injected. But at the same time Xi and his party have strongly reinforced their control across society and the economy, posing the question of whether Xi¿s New Era in fact marks a retreat from the reforms.
This second edition contains two new chapters. One profiles Huawei, a national champion in advanced technology. Another focuses on Chinäs frictions with the world which have been fueled by a perception that its technology progress threatens US global dominance, coupled with Chinäs human rights record. In addition, against a background of the challenges faced by Alibaba and other firms, there is analysis of this watershed in Chinäs private sector¿s autonomy. There is also extensive new insight into Xi Jinping¿s rule.
As it celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2021, the Chinese Communist Party displays strong optimism over its continued governance of China. But that should not mask the longer-term risks to Chinäs development and stability if its hybrid model continues to unravel as reforms are abandoned in favor of heightened autocracy.

Dr. Paul G. Clifford is a historian and business strategist. He lived and worked in China for many decades, first as a student in 1973 during the Cultural Revolution and later facilitating China's economic reforms. He developed and implemented business strategies for foreign companies entering China and for Chinese businesses (both state-owned and private) going global. During his career he has served at a senior level in a US corporate bank, a global management consulting firm and a major US high tech firm where he was responsible for its strategic relationship with a Chinese policy bank. He worked across multiple sectors from basic infrastructure and manufacturing (building materials, chemicals, integrated logistics, automotive and railways) to advanced technology (fiber optics, semi-conductors, remote healthcare networks and smart and connected cities).
Dr. Clifford is currently Non-resident Senior Fellow at the Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University and President of Paul G. Clifford & Associates, LLC, which provides corporate advisory services. The first edition of
