But after Tiananmen, the Communist Party erased the reform debate from memory. Julian Gewirtz shows how leadership expunged alternative visions of China's future and set the stage for the policing of history under Xi Jinping"-- The history the Chinese Communist Party has tried to erase: the dramatic political debates of the 1980s that could have put China on a path to greater openness.On a hike in Guangdong Province in January 1984, Deng Xiaoping was warned that his path was a steep and treacherous one. "Never turn back," the Chinese leader replied. That became a mantra as the government forged ahead with reforms in the face of heated contestation over the nation's future. For a time, everything was on the table, including democratization and China's version of socialism. But deliberation came to a sudden halt in spring 1989, with protests and purges, massacre and repression. Since then, Beijing has worked intensively to suppress the memory of this era of openness.Julian Gewirtz recovers the debates of the 1980s, tracing the Communist Party's diverse attitudes toward markets, state control, and sweeping technological change, as well as freewheeling public argument over political liberalization. The administration considered bold proposals from within the party and without, including separation between the party and the state, empowering the private sector, and establishing an independent judiciary. After Tiananmen, however, Beijing systematically erased these discussions of alternative directions. Using newly available Chinese sources, Gewirtz details how the leadership purged the key reformist politician Zhao Ziyang, quashed the student movement, recast the transformations of the 1980s as the inevitable products of consensus, and indoctrinated China and the international community in the new official narrative.Never Turn Back offers a revelatory look at how different China's rise might have been and at the foundations of strongman rule under Xi Jinping, who has intensified the policing of history to bolster his own authority |

But after Tiananmen, the Communist Party erased the reform debate from memory. Julian Gewirtz shows how leadership expunged alternative visions of China's future and set the stage for the policing of history under Xi Jinping"-- The history the Chinese Communist Party has tried to erase: the dramatic political debates of the 1980s that could have put China on a path to greater openness.On a hike in Guangdong Province in January 1984, Deng Xiaoping was warned that his path was a steep and treacherous one. "Never turn back," the Chinese leader replied. That became a mantra as the government forged ahead with reforms in the face of heated contestation over the nation's future. For a time, everything was on the table, including democratization and China's version of socialism. But deliberation came to a sudden halt in spring 1989, with protests and purges, massacre and repression. Since then, Beijing has worked intensively to suppress the memory of this era of openness.Julian Gewirtz recovers the debates of the 1980s, tracing the Communist Party's diverse attitudes toward markets, state control, and sweeping technological change, as well as freewheeling public argument over political liberalization. The administration considered bold proposals from within the party and without, including separation between the party and the state, empowering the private sector, and establishing an independent judiciary. After Tiananmen, however, Beijing systematically erased these discussions of alternative directions. Using newly available Chinese sources, Gewirtz details how the leadership purged the key reformist politician Zhao Ziyang, quashed the student movement, recast the transformations of the 1980s as the inevitable products of consensus, and indoctrinated China and the international community in the new official narrative.Never Turn Back offers a revelatory look at how different China's rise might have been and at the foundations of strongman rule under Xi Jinping, who has intensified the policing of history to bolster his own authority Deng, Xiaoping 1904-1997 (DE-588)118621297 gnd rswk-swf Kommunistische Partei (DE-588)4031900-3 gnd rswk-swf Tian'anmen-Massaker (DE-588)4242020-9 gnd rswk-swf China (DE-588)4009937-4 gnd rswk-swf Historiography / China / 20th century Political culture / China Asian history Asiatische Geschichte BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Economic History Economic history Economic systems & structures General & world history Geschichte allgemein und Weltgeschichte HISTORY / Asia / China HISTORY / Modern / 20th Century Marxism & Communism POL042060 POLITICAL SCIENCE / Political Ideologies / Communism & Socialism Politische Ideologien und Bewegungen der extremen Linken Wirtschaftsgeschichte Wirtschaftssysteme und -strukturen China / Politics and government / 1976-2002 China / History / 1976-2002 China / History / Tiananmen Square Incident, 1989 China / Economic policy / 1976-2000 China (DE-588)4009937-4 g Tian'anmen-Massaker (DE-588)4242020-9 s Kommunistische Partei (DE-588)4031900-3 s Deng, Xiaoping 1904-1997 (DE-588)118621297 p DE-604 9780674287372 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe Never turn back Cambridge, Massachusetts : The Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2022 1 Online-Ressource (vi, 418 Seiten) 9780674287372 9780674287389 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe Never turn back Cambridge, Massachusetts : The Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2022 1 Online-Ressource (vi, 418 Seiten, 8 ungezählte Seiten) 9780674287372 http://www.dietmardreier.de/annot/4B56696D677C7C39353931383236337C7C434F50.jpg?sq=1 Verlag Cover |
