Explore a significant era of modern Chinese history with this scholarly study from Cambridge University Press. This book examines the sent-down youth movement, a major Maoist project that relocated urban youth to remote rural areas for re-education between 1968 and 1980. Through deep archival research, the text focuses on the experiences of Shanghai's youth living in village settlements within remote regions. It provides a detailed account of how this movement shaped and was shaped by the complex relations between urban and rural areas in the People's Republic of China. Readers will gain a better understanding of the hardships and social changes that defined this period of the Cultural Revolution. By looking at the specific divisions and connections created by these relocations, this history offers a clear view of a movement that left a lasting impact on the nation. It is an essential resource for students, historians, and anyone interested in the social history of Asia.
