The year 1986 marked the tenth anniversary of the death of Mao
Zedong and the fall of the Gang of Four. A decade after the end of
the Cultural Revolution, China experienced the consolidation of
rural economic reform, continued progress in urban reform, a
widening of the "open door" to the west, and, perhaps most
important, the seemingly irreversible impact on Chinese society and
culture of Deng Xiaoping's new policies. The political consequences
of reform continued to create problems, as was seen at year's end
in a dramatic series of student demonstrations and the disciplining
of several high party officials and intellectuals. This annual
volume reviews the events and trends of the year in foreign
relations, domestic politics, the economy, foreign investment and
technology transfer, defense, and culture. A separate chapter
provides an overview of events in Taiwan. Complementing these
essays by distinguished China scholars is a chronology of
significant events and a selection of important documents published
during 1986. The book is ideal for course use and is essential
reading for travelers bound for China, business executives,
journalists, and China watchers in general.
