Some nationalistic dictators have worked. The question is, what is his economic philosophy?China is all about economic freedoms, as long as the money keeps rolling in (and the correct state and local palms get greased). The Chinese (so far) have adored their Golden Goose, and do not want to kill it. (They just renamed it "Chinese Socialism" so that nobody figures out that it is actually Capitalism. Shhhh. Don't tell anybody.)
It is the social freedoms that have to wait "until the economic conditions are stable" (which, of course, they will never be).

Jinping has made the decision China WILL be a premier world power... not based on nukes, but based on economic and political competency. If he plays his cards right it'll happen.
