How did Zhao Ziyang rise through the provincial apparatus of the
Chinese Communist Party to become premier in 1980? How did he
develop the policies of economic reform in the provinces that have
now become national policy? What does Zhao Ziyang's professional
development indicate about upward elite mobility in the Chinese
political system? These are the central questions the author
addresses in this political biography, tracing Zhao Ziyang's career
in detail from his youth, through the Anti-Japanese War, the 1949
revolution, land reform, a series of political and economic
campaigns during the 1950s and 1960s, the Cultural Revolution,
political rehabilitation, and the "Sichuan Experience." Mr.
Shambaugh goes beyond a chronological account to elucidate Zhao's
job responsibilities and performance, political and economic
philosophy, survival strategies, and behavior during thirty
tumultous years in provincial politics. Bringing forth much new
information drawn extensively from primary source materials, he
also provides insights into the functioning of the post-1949
Chinese political system, especially the interplay between central
and provincial politics.
