In Rudd’s summary, Xi is “part emperor and part revolutionary socialist.” Drawing on his direct experience with Xi, as well as his analysis of Xi in the years since, Ambassador Rudd will help us understand an individual who has been called the most ambitious and consequential leader on the international stage today. 

Co-sponsors: Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies
