China has made an extraordinary journey along the road back to greatness. Hundreds of millions have lifted themselves out of poverty, hundreds of millions more have joined the new middle class. It is on the verge of reclaiming what it sees as its rightful position in the world. China's global influence is expanding and within a decade its economy is expected to overtake America's. The new head of the ruling Communist Party, Xi Jinping, calls his new doctrine the "Chinese dream" evoking its American equivalent. Such slogans matter enormously in China . News bulletins are full of his dream. Schools organise speaking competitions about it. Xi's vision seems to include some American-style aspiration, which is welcome, but also a troubling whiff of nationalism and of repackaged authoritarianism. Even short of detail, Xi's dream is different from anything that has come before. Compared with his predecessors' stodgy ideologies, it unashamedly appeals to the emotions. Xi's patriotic doctrine looks as if it is designed chiefly to serve as a new source of legitimacy for the Communist Party.
