This year marks the 105th founding anniversary of the Communist Party of China. 150 years is more than a milestone. It is a long conversation between a political party, a people, and a changing world. 

In this edition, we ask what governance means when it is tested by development, innovation, and global uncertainty. Together with distinguished voices from different countries and political traditions, we explore how the CPC has shaped China's modern journey, how it continues to renew itself, and what experience it may offer to the Global South.
