Why has it taken such a different route from its Russian prototype? An answer, Elizabeth Perry suggests, lies in the Chinese Communists' creative development and deployment of cultural resources - during their revolutionary rise to power and afterwards. Skillful "cultural positioning" and "cultural patronage," on the part of Mao Zedong, his comrades and successors, helped to construct a polity in which a once alien Communist system came to be accepted as familiarly "Chinese." Perry traces this process through a case study of the Anyuan coal mine, a place where Mao and other early leaders of the Chinese Communist Party mobilized an influential labor movement at the beginning of their revolution, and whose history later became a touchstone of "political correctness" in the People's Republic of China. Once known as "China's Little Moscow," Anyuan came over time to symbolize a distinctively Chinese revolutionary tradition. Yet the meanings of that tradition remain highly contested, as contemporary Chinese debate their revolutionary past in search of a new political future.Asia--local studies/global themes ;24.CommunismChinaAnyuan (Jiangxi Sheng : West)History20th centuryRevolutionsSocial aspectsChinaAnyuan (Jiangxi Sheng : West)History20th centuryPolitical cultureChinaAnyuan (Jiangxi Sheng : West)History20th centurySocial changeChinaAnyuan (Jiangxi Sheng : West)History20th centuryCoal minersChinaAnyuan (Jiangxi Sheng : West)History20th centuryLabor movementChinaAnyuan (Jiangxi Sheng : West)History20th centuryWorking classChinaAnyuan (Jiangxi Sheng : West)History20th centuryAnyuan (Jiangxi Sheng, China : West)Politics and government20th centuryAnyuan (Jiangxi Sheng, China : West)Social conditions20th centuryAnyuan (Jiangxi Sheng, China : West)Economic conditions20th century20th century china.ancient china.asian history.asian politics.chinese communism.chinese communist party.chinese culture.chinese history.chinese isolation.chinese politics.communist revolution.easy to read.engaging.history of anyuan.history of communism.home school history books.how does communism work.learning from experts.mao zedong.nonfiction books.page turner.political science.politics and economy.quarantine books.red scare.russia communism.social politics.what is communism.CommunismHistoryRevolutionsSocial aspectsHistoryPolitical cultureHistorySocial changeHistoryCoal minersHistoryLabor movementHistoryWorking classHistory951.2/22Perry Elizabeth J126366MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910810078403321Anyuan4079255UNINA
