And no scholar of contemporary East Asian history and culture is better qualified than Ezra Vogel to disentangle the many contradictions embodied in the life and legacy of China's boldest strategist. Once described by Mao Zedong as a "needle inside a ball of cotton," Deng was the pragmatic yet disciplined driving force behind China's radical transformation in the late twentieth century. He confronted the damage wrought by the Cultural Revolution, dissolved Mao's cult of personality, and loosened the economic and social policies that had stunted China's growth. Obsessed with modernization and technology, Deng opened trade relations with the West, which lifted hundreds of millions of his countrymen out of poverty. Yet at the same time he answered to his authoritarian roots, most notably when he ordered the crackdown in June 1989 at Tiananmen Square. Deng's youthful commitment to the Communist Party was cemented in Paris in the early 1920s, among a group of Chinese student-workers that also included Zhou Enlai. Deng returned home in 1927 to join the Chinese Revolution on the ground floor. In the fifty years of his tumultuous rise to power, he endured accusations, purges, and even exile before becoming China's preeminent leader from 1978 to 1989 and again in 1992. When he reached the top, Deng saw an opportunity to creatively destroy much of the economic system he had helped build for five decades as a loyal follower of Mao-and he did not hesitate.--From publisher information. 001399511 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001399511 60010 $$aDeng, Xiaoping,$$d1904-1997. 001399511 650_0 $$aHeads of state$$zChina$$vBiography. 001399511 651_0 $$aChina$$xPolitics and government$$y1976-2002. 001399511 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aVogel, Ezra F.$$tDeng Xiaoping and the transformation of China.$$dCambridge, Mass. : Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2011$$z9780674055445$$w(DLC) 2011006925$$w(OCoLC)706677501 001399511 8520_ $$bacq 001399511 85280 $$bebk$$hHarvard University Press 001399511 85640 $$3Harvard University Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.4159/harvard.9780674062832$$zOnline Access 001399511 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:438755$$pGLOBAL_SET 001399511 980__ $$aEBOOK 001399511 980__ $$aBIB 001399511 982__ $$aEbook 001399511 983__ $$aOnline
