Round Table on the Implications of the 19th Chinese Communist Party Congress; Program, Speakers and On Line Materials


The Round Table on the Implications of the 19th Chinese Communist Party Congress that took place this Friday, November 3, from 10 AM through Noon U.S. East Coast Time, provided an opportunity for a global audience to consider, as a preliminary matter, the nature and character of the important development of Chinese political theory and its consequences for policy, the state and China's international engagements. The group of scholars from China, the U.K. the U.S. and Italy provided a lively and quite diverse set of impressions of critical aspects of the 19th CPC Congress. My thanks to the conference sponsors, Penn State Law, Penn State School of International Affairs, the Coalition for Peace & Ethics (which organized the event), and the Foundation for Law and International Affairs.

This post includes the Participant List and Program for the Round Table.  Links to Conference materials and original sources form the 19th CPC Congress may be accessed from the Conference Web Site (access here). We will add more material as they are made available. We welcome engagement and look forward to continuing our analysis of the important work of the 19th Congress and the development of the CPC Basic Line.
