Produktbeskrivning
It has been more than a century since the birth of Mao Zedong. From the collapse of the old Chinese Empire in 1912 to the foundation of the People''s Republic in 1949, his history is linked with that of contemporary China, and beyond national borders, with the history of communism as well.
His version of guerrilla warfare and revolution resulted in the construction of a socialist society that became a model of socialism throughout the world. Both a tyrant and rebel, Mao wanted to rule through revolution. Yet the Big Leap Forward (1958) and the Cultural Revolution (1966) each plunged China into chaos without saving it from totalitarianism.
After 1978, de-Maoization and economic reforms by Deng Xiaoping helped heal the country''s wounds, but the future yet remains uncertain. Whether to be an empire united or broken, serenely ''open'' or in conflict, democratic or authoritarian, egalitarian or prosperous - so many lingering questions remain of those that Mao and his generation began asking nearly a century ago.
Was the Maoist Revolution futile? Would China have been better off without Mao - and is such a thing imaginable?
