Description
This seminal work, originally published in 1980, examines the pivotal period following Mao Zedong's death and the arrest of the 'Gang of Four'. The book addresses fundamental questions about China's political and economic direction: was the nation shifting towards capitalist development and abandoning Maoist doctrine, or was its leadership reaffirming Mao's strategic vision while correcting the damage inflicted by the 'Gang of Four'? Through a collection of analytical essays, the volume reveals interpretive divisions within the post-Mao leadership, exploring disagreements over political ideology, the Communist Party's role, economic policy, and industrial management strategies. This Routledge Library Editions volume provides essential historical insight into China's ideological debates during this transformative era, making it invaluable for scholars, historians, and students studying modern Chinese politics and economic development.
