Xi Jinping

Xi Jinping enters the wiki through Building things and breaking things in China (Summer School World Tour) as the Chinese leader whose 2017 Party Congress housing line marks a policy pivot in the episode. The source quotes the idea that houses should be for living rather than speculation, then connects that stance to later tightening on local governments, banks, developers, and investors.

The page is source-scoped. In this episode, Xi matters mainly as the political signal behind the correction phase of China Real Estate Debt Cycle and as part of the state that treats demographics, fertility, and social order through the Engineering State lens.
