When it comes to Chinese politics, reading the tea leaves is never easy. In this episode Hamish and Geraldine are joined by Rana Mitter, the man dubbed the 'rockstar' of China studies by former PM Kevin Rudd, to break open the black box of the Politburo and reveal just how stable (or unstable) Xi Jinping's leadership is, given the economic and demographic headwinds that China is facing.

Guest: Rana Mitter - ST Lee Chair in US-Asia Relations at the Harvard Kennedy School.

Recommendations:

Rana - Listening: Face-Off: US vs China podcast, dropping on April 9.

Hamish - Reading: Restless Empire: China and the World Since 1750 by Odd Arne Westad

Geraldine - Watching: Turning Point: The Bomb and the Cold War docuseries on Netflix
