    Is there really an era-dividing "Xiconomics" regarding SOE governance in China? and Sarah Eaton's answer is No. They argue: SOE policy under Xi exhibits a deepening of preexisting trends rather than a departure and his administrations approach is not novel. ⬇️

    Fantastic scholarship here that should be be useful for anyone researching who wants to reference work on governance. Much like BRI itself, rather than a radical departure of Chinese policy making, SOE governance under Xi was mostly a continuation of existing policies.

    Looks very interesting (and provocative, not everyone may agree): “Analysing the main aims and methods of SOE governance over the last two decades, we find that SOE policy under Xi exhibits a deepening of pre-existing trends rather than a departure.”

    “Deepening not departure” of economic policies under Xi is largely consistent with my observations in electricity, where power sector reforms have restarted but remain stuck along traditional cleavages. Looking forward to 👀

    We will continue to closely track the evolution of Xi's SOE governance in future research. Analysis of intra-administration variation over time is especially important in this case, because it is unknown when Xi's term will end. 6/7

    We conclude that while Xi has amplified Party-centered tools of command and control, this appears to be an incremental rather than radical shift in approach. 5/7

    The Xi administration's approach to governing SOEs also relies on established mechanisms: bureaucratic design, the cadre management system, Party organizations and campaigns. 4/7

    In contrast, we find Xi's SOE policy shows deepening of pre-existing trends. Xi's core vision for SOEs is surprisingly consistent w/predecessors: achieving state control + market competitiveness on a global scale via concentrated state ownership + overseas expansion. 3/7

    Some have recently observed the emergence of a new "Xi era," characterized by a decisive departure in Xi's approach to managing state-owned enterprises (SOEs) - towards tight centralized control by the Chinese Communist Party and away from gradual marketization. 2/7
