Xi Jinping, President of the People's Republic of China - It is no secret that Chinese President Xi Jinping harbours high international ambitions. What was not yet known, however, is the role the Chinese Communist Party plays in this, specifically its International Department. Political scientist Julia Bader analysed the activities of the department. She discovered a fast-growing international network, including in the West, and a more offensive approach towards promoting China's political policies. News media report almost daily on China's international strategy as an emerging power. 'But we were not yet familiar with some of the vehicles China uses for this purpose,' says political scientist Julia Bader at the University of Amsterdam. She is alluding to the International Department of the Communist Party of China (CCP), which has ruled the People's Republic of China since 1949.
