The People’s Republic turns 70 on October 1st. Mark Mardell tells the story of how much China has changed in those seven decades - politically, culturally and socially. In part two of this series, we examine the state of the Chinese Communist Party at a critical juncture and ask whether its ruthless and ambitious President Xi is a new Mao.
