ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts covered in the preceding chapters of this book. The book examines the recent development of politics under the current leadership of President Xi Jinping. It presents the flexibility and durability of the Party state in China. Since 1978 the Party state in China has met a number of daunting and even potentially fatal challenges. In seeking and hammering out the solution the Party state has displayed resilience, flexibility, and pragmatism without comprising its authoritarian nature. Eventually and to the surprise of many observers and scholars the Party state has handled the most pressing tasks in governance relatively well. The book argues that despite the possibility of a quick collapse of the Chinese communist party (CCP) regime a more likely scenario is that the Party state can last for a considerable period.
