China watching is anything but being boring because Chinese politics is filled with dramas almost on a daily basis. In the past three years since Xi Jinping became general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party, the Chinese political drama has unfolded with a lot of twists and turns.
Based on a series of articles published on the Diplomat, this volume offers snapshots of different episodes of the political drama from December 2014 to January 2016, focusing mostly on the main character of the show — President Xi Jinping and serving as an appetizer for those who are hungry about Chinese elite politics.
Contents:

- Elite Dynamics
- China's Economic Development
- China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Foreign Affairs
- Rising Political Stars
- China's Future
Readership: Graduates, researchers interested in China Studies; general readers interested in China watching.
Key Features:
- Timely — The up-to-date content explored in this book offers readers a more comprehensive and nuanced analysis of Chinese elite politics
- Prediction — This title differs from existing approaches that tend to focus on charting Xi Jinping's rise to power by offering insights into the future of China, centered on the development of the seminal events discussed in the book
- Systematic analysis of elite dynamics — Compared to others, this book seeks to study Xi Jinping's China by focusing on a systematic analysis of elite dynamics.
