POLITICAL STRUCTURE

PARTY STRUCTURE
five year national congress (党代会)*; central committee meeting (plenum 全会)*; 25 person politburo (政治局); 7 person standing committee of politburo (政治局常委)
the Party General Secretary’s report to the Congress, which serves as a statement of the Party’s positions and an outline of the Party’s agenda for the coming five years. 
*Plenums usually focus on setting the direction for the country in a specific area, while also approving major personnel decisions. At the end of each plenum, the Party issues a public document, known as a communiqué, announcing the major decisions taken.

The Party General Secretary serves concurrently as Chairman of the Party and State Central Military Commissions, which have identical memberships, and as State President. He also oversees foreign policy and, according to the Party constitution, has responsibility for convening Standing Committee and larger Politburo meetings and “presiding over” the work of the Party Secretariat.
The second-ranked PSC member serves as Premier of the State Council, which manages the state bureaucracy. He is effectively China’s top economic official.
The third-ranked PSC member serves as Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress (NPC), China’s unicameral legislature.
The fourth-ranked PSC member serves as chairman of a political advisory body, the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) National Committee. He is responsible for outreach to non-Communist groups, such as China’s eight minor political parties, all of which pledge loyalty to the Communist Party, and state-sanctioned religious associations.
The fifth-ranked PSC member heads the Party Secretariat, which oversees the Party bureaucracy. He also has responsibility for ideology and propaganda.
The sixth-ranked PSC member heads the Party’s Central Disciplinary Inspection Commission (CDIC), which polices the Party’s ranks for corruption and other forms of malfeasance.
The seventh-ranked PSC member serves as the top-ranked State Council vice premier and assists the Premier with his duties.

PSC members also head Party “Leading Small Groups” (LSGs) for their policy areas. LSGs are secretive bodies intended to facilitate cross-agency coordination in implementation of Politburo Standing Committee decisions. The National Security Leading Small Group and the Foreign Affairs Leading Small Group, for example, are both headed by Party General Secretary Hu Jintao.
State structure



STATE STRUCTURE
the State system implements and executes policy. In recent decades, State leaders have been particularly focused on managing China’s economy, leaving “political” matters, such as ideology and personnel, to the Party.

Executive Committee(国务院办公厅)
Despite their subordination to the State Council and CCP, and the CCP’s role in appointing their leaders, the ministries can wield decisive tactical influence over policy by virtue of their role in drafting laws and regulations and implementing the sometimes ambiguous national policy goals set by top leaders. Not all ministries and commissions are created equal. MIIT (工信部) and the National Development and Reform Commission(发改委), both considered “super-ministries,” are more powerful in policy debates than other ministries.

Party penetration down to township level.
ADMINISTRATIVE LEVEL: Province(省), Municipality(市); Country(县), Township(镇), Village(乡村)
