The Chinese Communist Party During the Cultural Revolution: The Case of the Sixty-One Renegades (St. Antony's)

The Chinese Communist Party During the Cultural Revolution: The Case of the Sixty-One Renegades (St. Antony's) By Pamela Lubell
2002 | 277 Pages | ISBN: 0333919556 | PDF | 1 MB


In 1936 a group of Chinese communists were released from jail after a humiliating renunciation of communism. The Chinese Communist Party then secretly employed them to galvanize support in nationalist areas of the country. The Party later condemned the members of this group as renegades before finally rehabilitating them in 1978. Pamela Lubell uncovers the fascinating history of these communists, known as the Sixty-one, and in doing so produces a revealing account of the tensions within the Chinese Communist Party.
