China's Techno-Industrial Policy Under Xi: Centralization, Security, and Finance-Driven Strategy
Summary
This report examines how China's techno-industrial policy has evolved under Xi Jinping into a more centralized, security-linked, and finance-driven system. It organizes Xi-era policy into five channels (fiscal, financial, real economy, Party-firm, and overseas) and 18 instruments through which the Party-state defines priorities, mobilizes resources, disciplines firms and local governments, and projects these arrangements abroad. While the system has produced gains in technological capabilities, manufacturing scale, and supply chain resilience, it also generates significant tensions.
