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materials, village records and unpublished memoirs, diaries and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.
