Description

In Episode 43 of Hidden Forces, host Demetri Kofinas speaks with Elizabeth Economy about the emergence of a new imperial China and the rise of Xi Jinping. Since his reign began in 2012, Xi Jinping has managed to amass an extraordinary amount of power, seizing the most important leadership positions in the Chinese government — he’s head of the state, head of the military, and head of the Communist party. By centralizing institutional power, Xi may thrust China into a new imperial age. @hiddenforce
