Internal evaluations have proven effective in exposing problems. More than 50 percent of investigations into centrally-administered officials were as a result of information found by discipline inspectors, according to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.

The CPC also launched a series of campaigns in recent years, including the "mass-line," an effort to build a closer official-people relationship, and "three stricts and three earnests," a political campaign that urges officials to be strict in morals, power and disciplining oneself; and be honest in decisions, business and behavior.

The CPC has never been afraid of breaking the shelters of vested interests and sweeping out obstacles hampering development, professor Zhang said.

Uncertainties ripple through the world today, calling into question the definition of governance legitimacy. In this context, the CPC century-old wisdom and practices may be increasingly relevant, he said.
