AB - This study is focused on changes of the state and the political elite structure during the transition period. Specifically, it compares and analyzes changes in the structure of political elites in China and Russia, which are representative countries in the transition period. An analysis period is Hu Jintao and Xi Jinping in China and Putin in Russia. During this period, both countries proceeded with regime transition in different directions and reached the same goal. The analytic framework is a types of oligarchy with two main concepts: the role of the oligarchy in the exercise of coercion and the essence of governance.
As a result of the analysis, interestingly, the structures of elite politics of these countries, which had different directions of regime transition, were changing in a similar direction. In other words, it changed from a ‘ruling’ oligarchy to a ‘sultanistic’. The results of this study are as follows: from the same starting line of a socialism and planned economy, the elite political structure of Russia, which has transitioned to a capitalism, and the elite political structure of China, which has transitioned to the socialist market economy(SME), is changing in a similar direction.
