This examination of policy developments in the People's Republic of
China since the Cultural Revolution addresses two central
questions: (1) how durable were foreign and domestic policies
during the 1970s; and (2) what is the relationship between foreign
and domestic policy and between both of these policy areas and
internal political maneuvering? Studies of five broad policy areas
reveal that most policies were very stable during this period and
that foreign policy was linked to domestic issues and political
competition only to the extent that it impinged on domestic
interests. The studies trace the evolution of policies on specific
issues such as education, foreign trade, and military doctrine, but
they also evaluate these policies and decisions in the larger
context to which they belong. Key decisions at the start of the
decade affected the evolution of policy in all areas and largely
shaped the change from adherence to precepts of the Cultural
Revolution to the conviction that economic and technical emphasis
must displace efforts to achieve social equality in the short run
if China is to become a secure and independent nation.
