Some interesting writings by a former insider on how the Chinese Community Party works behind the scenes. The government likes to maintain an image of total unity and the Western media reinforces this perception with all the techno-dystopian stories about China. But in reality there is a constant power struggle going on behind the scenes between different factions of the party.
