Panel: Why CPC's sustained anti-corruption drive matters

from World Today

The 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China has concluded its fifth plenary session in Beijing, adopting a decision on several major issues concerning persistently advancing full and rigorous Party self-governance. For over a decade, the CPC's sustained anti‑corruption drive has reshaped norms governing conduct among Party and government officials across China. That said, the message coming out of the latest meeting is clear: the anti-corruption campaign is entering a complex new phase, as the Party continues to advance institutionalized self‑reform. How can CPC effectively discipline itself? Host Ding Heng is joined by Einar Tangen from Center for International Governance Innovation; Professor Josef Gregory Mahoney from East China Normal University; Professor Liu Baocheng with University of International Business and Economics.
