Nuno P. Monteiro
Nuno P. Monteiro, associate professor of political science, died on May 5.
Monteiro was an expert in international relations theory and security studies. He was known among his colleagues and students for his intellectual rigor, compassionate nature, and friendly spirit.
“Nuno was a gifted and devoted teacher and mentor to undergraduate and graduate students alike,” said Gregory Huber, chair of the Department of Political Science. “Additionally, he was a serious and forceful academic who took deep pride in the art and craft of research, reading, and engaging widely. His work and insights deepened our knowledge of complex problems within international relations, including nuclear proliferation, in the complex post-Cold War world. We will all miss his insights, rigor, and deep sense of humor.”
After Xi: Future Scenarios for Leadership Succession in Post-Xi Jinping Era
A Joint Report of the CSIS Freeman Chair in China Studies and the Lowy Institute
Key Findings
After more than eight years in office, Xi Jinping has made himself into China’s most powerful leader since Deng Xiaoping, but in doing so, Xi has destabilised elite politics and demolished the power sharing norms that evolved since the 1980s.
By removing de jure and de facto term limits on the most senior position of power, and thus far refusing to nominate his successor, Xi has solidified his own leadership position but potentially pushed the country towards a destabilising succession crisis.
