Read excerpt
Senior Correspondent, International Affairs Fourteen years—that’s how long Xi Jinping’s lopsided smile has sought to replace U.S. leadership in the world with his Communist Party of China-informed vision of good governance. Xi is only 73, and nobody expects him to step down as the general secretary of the CCP next year when the 21st Party Congress convenes in Beijing to appoint a leader for the next five years.
