| | CNN.com - Who is Hu Jintao? - Nov. 7, 2002 |
 | | Since the late 1990s, Hu, a former party secretary of the league, has been able to promote a large number of his protégés -- most of whom are CYL alumnae -- to senior positions in both Beijing and the provinces. | | | In the past year, Hu has been at the forefront pushing the ideas and teachings of the president, who is anxious to enshrine Jiang Zemin Theory in the Communist party charter. | | | This is why it may not be until Hu's "second term" -- meaning the five years after the 17th party congress in 2007 -- that the new leader will feel comfortable enough to thrash out his new ideas and programs in economic and political reform. |

| | Who's Hu? Assessing China's Heir Apparent, Hu Jintao |
| | At one point, Hu focused his attentions on the shortcomings of the state-owned Luolong tea plantations in Daozheng and the successes of the semi-private tea plantation in the same county. | | | But the story of Hu's appointment as party chief in Tibet suggests he was chosen because of his reputation as a reformist, not for his decisiveness in putting down revolts. | | | Clearly, Hu Jintao's influence on the Party School and on the party's organization infrastructure in general has pushed the party more toward responsiveness to social dissatisfaction rather than the outright repression of such dissent favored in the more militant factions of the party. |

| | Chinese President Hu Jintao. By Chris Suellentrop |
| | In the short run, it matters who Hu Jintao is. But in the long run, the American public is right to ignore him. | | | After all, the outgoing General Secretary Jiang Zemin retained his position as the head of the Chinese military, and Jiang's predecessor, Deng Xiaoping, had maintained a significant power base in the party long after he relinquished ceremonial control. | | | Some argue that Hu is bending to international opinion, rather than Chinese public opinion. |

| | Now that public opinion has swung in Hu's favor, he could consolidate his power by loosening the censor's steely grip. | | | During last year's 16th Party Congress, which saw Hu's appointment as General Secretary, China's leaders made but one concrete pledge to the public—and it had dollar signs attached. | | | He actively led a fresh internal Party campaign to study Jiang's doctrine of the Three Represents, thus preserving the legacy of the old guard and ensuring the continuity of Party authority. |

| | Hu's task, however, has been made difficult by the fact that Jiang, who was CMC chief for nearly 15 years, had until the very last moment insisted on having the final say on senior-level appointments. | | | In a way, the one area that Hu Jintao may have done Hu Yaobang the proudest may be the elevation of dozens of CYL alumnae to senior party and State Council posts. | | | This is despite widely held reservations by cadres outside of the CYL Faction that quite a number of Hu protégés are career party affairs specialists who have dubious qualifications for portfolios ranging from finance and foreign trade to legal and judicial affairs. |

| | Contrary to hopes expressed by both Chinese intellectuals and foreign observers that the new Hu Jintao administration would be more open to political change and to freer expression of ideas, Hu's government has backed away from some of the tolerance that existed (though insufficiently) under Jiang Zemin. | | | While Jiang Zemin did not shy away from criticizing presumed Western efforts to "divide" and "Westernize" China, the Hu administration has actively backed a campaign to criticize "neoliberalism" and has cracked down on the expression of liberal opinion. | | | For the moment at least, Hu seems determined to address the problems facing China by strengthening the Chinese Communist Party rather than adjusting the relationship between the party and society through greater openness. |
