Xi Jinping – der mächtigste Mann in China seit Mao – höchste Zeit zu wissen, was er denkt!

Der langjährige China-Experte Kerry Brown erklärt kompakt auf 160 Seiten, was und wie Xi Jinping denkt: wie er die Armut bekämpfen, den Klimawandel abwenden, mittels Big Data, die Überwachung vervollständigen will, und was er von China erwartet – und wie weit er gehen würde, um dieses zu verteidigen. Kurz: alles, was wir über das neue China und seinen Herrscher Xi Jinping wissen müssen.
