Order Of Precedence In China
The orders of precedence in China is the ranking of political leaders in China for the purposes of event protocol and to arrange the ordering of names in official news bulletins, both written and televised.

Depending on the person and the time period, the hierarchy will vary accordingly. Since the 1980s, Chinese political positions have become increasingly institutionalized.

One Institution With Two Names
"One institution with two names" () is an arrangement where a Chinese government agency exists in name only, and its functions are in practice performed by another government agency or a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) organization, so that in effect one institution has two or more official names for political, historical, or bureaucratic reasons. This type of arrangement was historically common until the mid-1980s, but has been extensively revived under reform measures instituted in 2017-2018. Generally, the purpose of retaining the name of the state institution is so that the party institution has the option of using it where it may be legally or aesthetically appropriate. For example, one name can be used domestically and another used when dealing with institutions outside China. The arrangement can be achieved by either "adding a name" () or "externally reserving a name" (). Within Chinese bureaucratic nomenclature, "one institution with two names" is distinct from "co-located ...
