China's system is not designed to acknowledge the reality of failure.

The Party's sixth plenum was an attempt to do just that.

Corruption and popular discontent led to one of China's most tumultuous periods. Could it happen again?

30 years since beginning its reforms, China has yet to create a political and social model for sustainable development.

Unlimited power and little supervision encourage officials to seek to influence politics long after they retire.

It's not anti-corruption or the economy, but a deeper contradiction.

A recent piece in Xinhua posits that a two-party state would have crippled China's development.

Once again, Western media misunderstands China's political system.

Some signs bode well, but profound shifts must be completed before the optimism is truly warranted.
