Around 18 million young Chinese people were sent to the countryside
between 1966 and 1976 as part of the Cultural Revolution. In this
collection of interviews with former Red Guards, members of the
first generation to be born under Chairman Mao talk frankly about
the dramatic changes which have occurred in China since 1980. In
discussing the impact these changes have had on their own lives,
the former revolutionaries give a direct insight into how
ex-Maoists view contemporary China, revealing an attitude perhaps
more critical than that of most Western commentators. These memoirs
tell the very personal stories of how people from all walks of life
were affected by both the cultural revolution and Deng Xiaoping's
economic reforms. They cover subjects as diverse as marriage and
divorce, the privatization of industry, family relationships,
universities and the stock market.
