Children of the Cultural Revolution

the long version

"Xiaowei Zang seeks to understand the relationships between family life and political behaviour of the Red Guard Generation before and during the Chinese Cultural Revolution (1966-1976). He analyzes social stratification in China before 1966, then investigates the differing life paths and personal experiences of children from several distinct social groups during the Cultural Revolution. This analysis is based on interviews with over fifty Chinese immigrants who were students during the Cultural Revolution."--BOOK JACKET.
