This book translates and contextualizes the recollections of men
and women who built, lived, and worked in some of the factory
compounds relocated from China's most cosmopolitan city-Shanghai.
Small Third Line factories became oases of relatively prosperous
urban life among more impoverished agricultural communities. These
accounts, plus the guiding questions, contextual notes, and further
readings accompanying them, show how everyday lives fit into the
sweeping geopolitical changes in China and the world during the
Cold War era. Furthermore, they reveal how the Chinese Communist
Party's military-industrial strategies have shaped China's economy
and society in the post-Mao era. The approachable translations and
insight into areas of life rarely covered by political or
diplomatic histories like sexuality and popular culture make this
book highly accessible for classroom use and the general-interest
reader.
