With the 20th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party taking place recently, Mapping the World dedicates a special extended episode to an analysis of China today.

At the Five-Year Congress, 2,300 CCP delegates gather at the People's Palace in Tiananmen Square to nominate members of the Central Committee for the next five years. Xi Jinping will assert his power and his will to power. On the eve of the opening of this Congress, we look at the internal difficulties of a country trapped by its Zero Covid strategy and which still has to resolve structural territorial inequalities, the future of the New Silk Roads in a difficult global economic context, the rise in tensions between Beijing and Taipei against the backdrop of the war in Ukraine, Sino-American competition in the military and technological fields, the Uighur question, and Sino-Russian relations since Moscow's offensive against Kiev.
