Beskrivning
Drawing on more than a quarter century of field and documentary research in rural North China, this book explores the contested relationship between village and state from the 1960s to the start of the twenty-first century. The authors provide a vivid portrait of how resilient villagers struggle to survive and prosper in the face of state power in two epochs of revolution and reform. Highlighting the importance of intra-rural resistance and rural-urban conflicts to Chinese politics and society in the Great Leap and Cultural Revolution, the authors go on to depict the dynamic changes that have transformed village China in the post-Mao era.  This book continues the dramatic story in the authors’ prizewinning Chinese Village, Socialist State.  Plumbing previously untapped sources, including interviews, archival materials, village records and unpublished memoirs, diaries and letters, the authors capture the struggles, pains and achievements of villagers across three generations of social upheaval.

Recensioner i media

"'The magnificent culmination of a 25-year study of a single village in northern China whose two volumes now stand as the best single narrative of China's violent 20th century... The crowning achievement of Revolution, Resistance, and Reform, building on a predecessor volume Chinese Village, Socialist State is to show how little has changed between prereform-era China. By tracing the village of Wugong since 1943, the authors show convincingly that the twin forces or revolution and reform have been constants since 1949." Bruce Gilley, Far Eastern Economic Review"
