In this groundbreaking volume, based on extensive research in
Chinese archives and libraries, Jan Kiely explores the
pre-Communist origins of the process of systematic thought reform
or reformation (ganhua) that evolved into a key component of Mao
Zedong's revolutionary restructuring of Chinese society. Focusing
on ganhua as it was employed in China's prison system, Kiely's
thought-provoking work brings the history of this critical
phenomenon to life through the stories of individuals who
conceptualized, implemented, and experienced it, and he details how
these techniques were subsequently adapted for broader social and
political use.
