This book elaborates on how China's previous leaders established, consolidated, developed and improved China's basic modern governance system.

The rapid pace and grand scale of China's rise have produced a heady mixture of wonder and consternation in the West. Is China on track to become a superpower? What would that mean for the rest of the world? Economist Hu Angang approaches these questions through analysis of three major dimensions of China's rise.

Translated from Chinese, this book surveys the factors which have contributed to China's rise so far, and assesses China's strengths and weaknesses in the key areas which will affect China's rise going forward. It also assesses just how far any leading world power can dominate the world economy and world politics.
