SUMMARY:FCCC Online Talk. The Broken China Dream: How Reform Revived Totalitarianism
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a compelling talk with Dr. Minxin Pei\, a distinguished scholar of Chinese politics\, as he presents his latest book\, “The Broken China Dream: How Reform Revived Totalitarianism.” Dr. Pei will delve into his provocative argument that China’s reform efforts\, rather than fostering democracy\, inadvertently set the stage for a resurgence of totalitarianism under Xi Jinping. He will explore how the Chinese Communist Party’s strategic decisions have led to a re-establishment of personalistic rule\, a cult of personality\, stringent social control\, and an assertive foreign policy\, examining the profound implications of these developments for China and the world. \nAbout the Speaker: Dr. Minxin Pei is the Tom and Margot Pritzker ’72 Professor of Government and George R. Roberts Fellow at Claremont McKenna College. His extensive research focuses on Comparative Politics\, Chinese Politics\, Democracy\, Great Power Rivalry\, Authoritarianism\, and U.S.-China Relations. He previously served as the inaugural Library of Congress Chair on U.S.-China Relations and was a senior associate and director of the China Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. He earned his Ph.D. in government from Harvard University.
