About the Book

Xi Jinping wants to become the world's most powerful leader. To succeed, he must balance Mao's Little Red Book with the Analects of Confucius, and more. For Xi, the task ahead of China is to preserve the guiding ideology of Marxism, while challenging mistaken credos like neoliberalism, constitutional democracy, and 'universal values'. China must have total faith in its own brand of socialism, blended meaningfully with Chinese tradition. And this system must revolve around one man--around Xi and 'Xi-ism'. Francois Bougon's compelling biography exposes the historical, philosophical, political and personal narratives that Xi has skilfully woven together to create a superpower in his own image. Is Xi's China a land of 'new market totalitarianism'? Will this be the price of the Chinese dream?

Review :
'Bougon . . . peers into the black box of Xi’s ambitions and strategy.’ 'Compact and accessible.' 'One of the best features of 'Inside the Mind of Xi Jinping', an information-packed, briskly written and engaging work by François Bougon, is the way it makes sense of contradictions like these.' ‘[A] livel[y] and … accessible biograph[y] of the Chinese leader.’ ‘Bougon . . . peers into the black box of Xi’s ambitions and strategy.’ ' An engaging analysis of Xi’s thinking based on the Chinese leader’s own words . . . it has much to offer as a guide to contemporary Chinese political thought.' 'A riveting biography, "Inside the Mind of Xi Jinping" delves deep into the mindset of the Chinese President.' 'An engrossing and vitally significant book.' 'A rare journalistic attempt . . . refreshing.' 'French journalist Bougon's compelling account delves deep into the mentality of the Chinese president . . . offer[ing] important insights for anyone interested in understanding the mindset of the current Chinese leader and the implications for China’s prospects. Timely, accessible, and concise.' A succinct account of the Xi Jinping phenomenon by an eyewitness to the key moments of his rise--but with a healthy dose of scepticism. Bougon sheds highly readable, and often humorous, light on China's seemingly omnipotent leader, and on how he is shaping our world. An excellent account of Xi Jinping's life and career, what drives him, and why he is different from his predecessors. Its range and depth are impressive. Timely and compact, 'Inside the Mind of Xi Jinping' probes China's current posture through the thinking of its most assured leader since Mao. Unlike his counterparts in the West, Xi emerges as cultured, capable, politically adept and unashamedly authoritarian. The world, no less than China, should take note.
