Opinion: Xi Jinping’s nationalism is running into the reality of slower growth and a fear of political instability, writes Jonathan Kolatch
Xi Jinping came into office in 2012 with guns drawn. He needed to tame the Communist Party and enthrall the Chinese people. He achieved the first, to great applause, by bringing down corrupt party powerhouses such as Bo Xilai and Zhou Yongkang.
He defined his China Dream as the “Great Rejuvenation of the Chinese People,” playing to the historical humiliation by foreign occupiers drummed into every Chinese schoolchild: the Opium Wars, foreign spheres of influence, Japanese occupation. Finally, China had shucked off its albatross. Even party skeptics bought into his hypernationalism.
