Civil War in China: The Political Struggle, 1945-1949
Civil War in China: The Political Struggle 1945-1949
Many books have tried to analyze the reasons for the Chinese communist success in China's 1945_1949 civil war, but Suzanne Pepper's seminal work was the first and remains the only comprehensive analysis of how the ruling Nationalists lost that war_not just militarily, but by alienating the civilian population through corruption and incompetence. Now available in a new edition, this authoritative investigation of Kuomintang failure and communist s…
Hong Kong joins the National People's Congress: A first test for one country with two political systems
Before its reversion to Chinese sovereignty in July 1997, Hong Kong was preoccupied with safeguarding its autonomy while China insisted on keeping separate the two political systems of Hong Kong and the mainland. Toward these ends, everyone focused on Hong Kong's own governing councils and ignored its future status within China's congress system. Not until the December 1997 deadline approached for naming Hong Kong's delegation to the March 1998 m…

Radicalism and Education Reform in 20th-Century China: The Search for an Ideal Development Model
Radicalism and Education Reform in 20th-Century China: The Search for an Ideal Development Model
In 1976, China's 'education revolution' was being hailed by foreign observers as an inspiration for all low-income countries. By 1980, the Chinese themselves had disavowed the experience, declaring it devoid of even a single redeeming virtue. This is the first comprehensive book to cover the whole sweep of twentieth-century Chinese education, and to provide a detailed study of what occurred in the countryside under the radical Maoist education ex…

The Cambridge History of China
Volume 15 of The Cambridge History of China is the second of two volumes dealing with the People's Republic of China since its birth in 1949. The harbingers of the Cultural Revolution were analyzed in Volume 14 and Volume 15 traces a course of events still only partially understood by most Chinese. It begins by analysing the development of Mao's thought since the Communist seizure of power, and, in doing so, attempts to understand why he launched…
The Nationalist Era in China, 1927–1949
In recent years historians of China have focused increased attention on the critical decades of National rule on the mainland. This recent scholarship has substantially modified our understanding of the political events of this momentous period, shedding light on the character of Nationalist rule and on the sources of the Communist victory in 1949. Yet no existing textbook on modern China presents the events of the period according to these new f…
China's special economic zones: The current rescue bid for a faltering experiment
The year 1985 was a difficult one for the reformers in China. “Reformers” is the term often used to designate the active promoters of the current economic reforms. The most widely noted characteristic of those reforms is the attempt to graft selected features of capitalism onto China's socialist economy in the hope of making it perform more effectively. This also requires a new receptivity to the influences of the capitalist West. The reformers l…
New directions in education
According to the conventional periodization of post-1949 China, the Great Leap Forward of 1958 marks the end of direct Soviet influence and the beginning of a new Chinese road to socialism. The single, unified nationwide objective was to produce laborers with socialist consciousness and culture. But many different forms of schooling would be used in pursuit of that single aim, including schools run by the state and those run by collectives; gener…
China's Universities. Post-Mao Enrollment Policies and Their Impact on the Structure of Secondary Education
Party and Professionals. The Political Role of Teachers in contemporary China
This study of the effects and directions of social change in Taiwan examines questions such as: what was the society of Taiwan like before the current period of economic growth? how has it changed? and are there aspects that did not change, despite the significant transformation in some spheres
China's Universities: New Experiments in Socialist Democracy and Administrative Reform—a Research Report
During the Cultural Revolution, China's education system was the focus of one of the most radically egalitarian experiments ever attempted anywhere. Institutions of higher learning, representing the elitist pinnacle of the system, bore the brunt of the equalizing efforts. Today the Cultural Revolution stands officially condemned as a catastrophe foisted upon the nation by the Gang-of-Four at the behest of the aging Mao. Simultaneously, every face…
Chinese Education After Mao: Two Steps Forward, Two Steps Back and Begin Again?
Of all the sayings attributed to Deng Xiaoping, his commentary on the colour of cats is surely the most famous. Thanks to the radical campaign against him in 1976, all of China was reminded that Deng did not care whether a cat was black or white – so long as it could catch mice it was good enough for him. This was said to demonstrate his lack of commitment to political principle. As a consequence he was hailed outside China as a pragmatist and a …
