The Xi–Li Administration (simplified Chinese: 习李体制; traditional Chinese: 習李體制; pinyin: Xí–Lǐ Tǐzhì) of the People's Republic of China began in 2013, when Xi Jinping and Li Keqiang[1] succeeded Hu Jintao and Wen Jiabao following the 18th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party. It is speculated that Xi will solidify the political power of the General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party, for the absolute command of the Communist ideology over pragmatic approach, and on the economic front there will be no liberalization but socialist entrenchment.[2]

Along with Xi, who replaced Hu Jintao as General Secretary of the CCP (de facto paramount leader) and President (de jure head of state), and Li, who replaced Wen Jiabao as Premier (head of government), the fifth generation of CCP leadership includes Zhang Dejiang, Yu Zhengsheng, Liu Yunshan, Wang Qishan, Zhang Gaoli, Li Yuanchao, Liu Yandong and Wang Yang.[3]
