People's Republic of China, 1949-Present

This course covers the diverse years of the People's Republic of China. For the Mao Zedong period, we explore socialist reformations, the Anti-rightist Movement, the Great Leap Forward, the Cultural Revolution, and the making of Communist citizens within a new hierarchy. For the post-Mao years, we examine how ongoing reforms and open door policies de-communized the country as part of our investigation into China's painful and twisted journey to modernity in a global context.
