Legitimizing Power: coping with fragmentation and crises in post-reform China

Bachelor thesis | International Studies (BA)
Where it seems that the ideological narrative a political party or entity takes forms the base for the support it gets, since 1978 and onwards the CCP has shown it is possible to change this ideological narrative without losing legitimacy as a ruling power. This thesis covers the changing ideology of the CCP from 1949 up till now, and offers an explanation on how the Party has been able to legitimize its shift from being a socialist state up till the end of the 1970's, to currently being one of the most capitalist countries in in the world.
