A new generation of top Chinese national leadership will take the stage at the 18th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in November 2012. The new leadership will have a huge impact in the next decade on China's political and social development, U.S-China relations, and the Carter Center's programming in China. Panelists include Harvard law professor William P. Alford; Boston University international relations and political science professor Joseph Fewsmith; and Carter Center China Program Director Yawei Liu. Carter Center Vice President for Peace Programs Dr. John Stremlau moderates.
