China's decade-long Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution shook the politics of        China and the world. Even as we approach its fiftieth anniversary, the movement        remains so contentious that the Chinese Communist Party still forbids fully open        investigation of its origins, development, and conclusion. Drawing upon a vital        trove of scholarship, memoirs, and popular culture, this Very Short Introduction        illuminates this complex, often obscure, and still controversial movement. Moving        beyond the figure of Mao Zedong, Richard Curt Kraus links Beijing's elite politics        to broader aspects of society and culture, highlighting many changes in daily life,        employment, and the economy. Kraus also situates this very nationalist outburst of        Chinese radicalism within a global context, showing that the Cultural Revolution was        mirrored in the radical youth movement that swept much of the world, and that had        imagined or emotional links to China's red guards. Yet it was also during the        Cultural Revolution that China and the United States tempered their long hostility,        one of the innovations in this period that sowed the seeds for China's subsequent        decades of spectacular economic growth.
