AB - The 20th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party (hereafter referred to as “the 20th National Congress”) was under the global spotlight long before it was held for seven days from 16 to 22 October 2022. People wondered whether Xi Jinping would secure a third term as China’s leader or whether he would lay the foundations to be in power forever during the third term. In Korea, the press and media questioned whether the event would become the “crowning of Emperor Xi (Xi Huangdi),” whose power rivaled that of the first emperor in China, Shi Hunagdi, and featured the scene where Hu Jintao was forced to leave the venue during the Congress. On the other hand, many Korean academics focused more on how Xi would organize the Politburo and its Standing Committee and whether the outline of his heirs would appear during the event. This tendency in academia in turn worsened the media’s concerns.
This paper presents a quantitative analysis of the 20th National Congress Report, as opposed to an analysis of Xi’s political intentions at the event. The National Congress Report outlines the Party’s visions, goals, and strategies for the next five years in politics, economy, society, culture, foreign affairs, and relationship with Taiwan. The authoritative document is rich in narrative and logic and deserves academic study. This research analyzes the 18th, 19th, and 20th Reports by identifying their keywords and regular expressions and checking their frequency and percentage through text-mining methods. This approach enables the quantification and visualization of the significant changes in the Party’s sovereign vision over the fifteen years of Xi’s rule from 2013 to 2027.
