Since 1949, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has maintained unparalleled control over China, enduring economic crises and social unrest. This dominance is not solely due to repression; the CCP also demonstrates surprising responsiveness to public needs. The exploration of this paradox reveals how the balance between repression and responsiveness has evolved, especially under President Xi Jinping, where there has been a noticeable shift toward increased repression. Bruce Dickson examines critical questions about the CCP's governance, including its leadership selection, policy creation, and approach to protests. The party employs repression against significant political threats while responding to localized social and economic issues. For instance, it may address concerns regarding environmental hazards or healthcare but reacts harshly to protests in regions like Tibet, Xinjiang, or Hong Kong. Since Xi's ascension in 2012, the CCP's reliance on suppression has intensified, raising questions about the implications for China's future. Drawing on extensive sources, this analysis sheds light on the complex dynamics between the Chinese state and its citizens, ultimately influencing governance and the potential for democratic change.
