Deng Communist Leaders

“Today he uses sweet words and honeyed talk to those he entices; tomorrow he puts them to death for fabricated crimes.” (Heuston, Kimberley. Mao Zedong. Frontispace ). Mao Zedong is the person of the 20th Century because he changed the country of China for better and worse. Through his life, he is willing to stop anyone from getting in his way in his quest to rule and change China. He made Communism the ruling party in the country, forming the People's Republic of China. Chairman Mao’s “Great Leap Forward” policies and actions modernized the country in less than half a century. A major part of his life is dedicated to killing the people who stand in his way.

China's transition from the leadership under the iron fist of Mao Zedong to the more liberal Deng Xiao Ping gave the People's Republic a gradual increase in economic freedom while maintaining political stability. During Mao's regime, the country focused on bolstering and serving the community, while subsequently encumbering individual growth and prosperity. Deng advocated a more capitalist economic ideology, which established China as an economic force in the global community while endowing its citizens with more liberties and luxuries than previously granted.

China has been a communist country since the communist revolution took place in 1949, since then China has been ruled by the dictator Mao Tse-Tung. However the Chinese dictator died in September 1976, he was hailed abroad as one of the worlds’ great leaders. Certainly one of the more impressive aspects of the Chinese communist government, has been the willingness of the people to protest against it (3, pg. 4).

Pol Pot and Mao Zedong committed horrendous acts of genocide. Both are leaders of their country and are merciless when it comes to gaining, and or controlling power. Pol Pot was a leader of the Khmer Rouge and committed the Cambodia genocide. Mao Zedong was the leader of China and he committed the Great Chinese Famine. Both countries were communist; Cambodia became a communist country after it was taken over by the Khmer Rouge. Both Pol Pot and Mao Zedong were fearless leaders who would give the order to commit violence.

Mao had to overcome the Nationalist to come to power and bring communism to China during the Chinese Civil War in the early

In Russia and China, both Stalin and Mao emerged as almost god-like leaders despite making their respective countries endure harsh programs of reform all economically, politically and socially. Mao can be seen to have adopted the policies of Stalin, both inspired by the Marxist ideologies of Lenin. Both Stalin and Mao recognized the economic backwardness of their respective countries and wanted to use industrialization and collectivisation as the primary means of increasing their economies. Although the original plans were very similar, the actual undertaking of the plans in addition to the results and how it helped consolidate both leaders may slightly vary. Comparing and

Though Stalin was the main reason Russia is the strong country it is currently, countless people died. In fact, Stalin executed more people than Hitler killed, which is a horrific amount. China, like Russia, was not an advanced country in the least. The country was ruled by corrupt nationalists, who despised communists and killed them. This made China's change from a more nationalistic governing to a communist system very difficult and very bloody. Mao Zedong was a leader in the communist party during the civil war between nationalists and communists. He began as a strong and well-loved leader, quite opposite from Stalin. Mao Zedong would listen to others very well and try to understand their way of thinking, which made him a very successful and loved leader. But when the communist party took over China, he began to change into a hard-headed and less understanding man. Communism under Mao Zedong was beneficial for China. Mao Zedong pushed the citizens of China to be cooperative with each other and share all of their belongings. He also tried to gain the trust and love of all the lower class citizens by taking lands from the higher class citizens and giving them to lower class citizens. He killed many landlords, which the majority of Chinese love him. He was praised for his cruelty. So, in the end, Stalin and Mao Zedong became somewhat similar in their leadership, but Stalin was much more cruel.

Through out all of history we have seen so many heroes and villains all over the world. But one place in particular was in China, with a leader who goes by the name of Mao Zedong. Mao Zedong was a well-known communist leader in china who actually lead the Chinese Communist Party. He is one of the most important people/historical figures in history. At first he was helping China at the beginning of his ruling, nut then his actions had cause China to completely fall and breakout into violence and complete chaos!! Changing the views of his people because whatever good he had done did not matter anymore from his great down fall. During his ruling though some believed that Mao

When people hear the name “Mao Zedong”, they immediately think of a stubby communist dictator responsible for the death of millions. Although many of his reforms failed and millions died, many argue that he his “good” outweigh his “bad”. He saved the ailing nation of China, molding it to the nation it is today.

Mao Zedong was a Chinese communist and father of the People’s Republic of China. Mao Zedong grew up farming and had arranged marriage. He got his power by getting a lot of support from peasants from China. The communists were led by Mao Zedong. The Chinese communists got their power in 1949. Mao Zedong did not make a better society economically because he did not improve the quality of lives for people because there wasn’t enough jobs. He did make a better society socially because he improved living conditions, women got freedom after the law, and expanded education.

This paper aims to find out the differences between the developmental strategies of Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping. Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping are important characters of China's history. Both great leaders and both tried to bring about reform with China. In addition, through the facts that society in China has been changing in recent decades, evaluate the achievements of each in the contribution to economic and social development of China.

Mao and Deng’s tyrannical reign proved that China had remained similar to a dynasty with some differences that Mao used to prevent an overthrow. To understand what Mao and Deng created, one must first understand how a dynasty had worked in the past and how China ran under the CCP. Based on a traditional Chinese dynasty, a new dynasty will come into power through a political, cultural and economic summit. The new leader will receive the Mandate of Heaven, and things during the beginning will thrive. This is a time of advancements and satisfaction in the proletariat. Then, the dynasty will begin to decline due to corruption within the government. The people will decide that through a rebellion, they will end the tyranny and they come

Mao Zedong’s rise to political power as chairmen of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), was made possible by the failings of the GouMinDan (GMD). After the fall of the Qing dynasty, in 1911, China fell into disarray where warlords had power, rather than a national government. Sun Yat-sen began a nationalist group whose militaristic tacts allowed them to unite china under a singular party, the GMD. Despite many revolutionary promises very little positive changes were made by Chiang Kai-shek, who became leader of the GMD in 1925.However because of the party’s lack of political knowledge and poor socio-economic abilities the GMD’s rule was a failure. Mao used this to project his own ideology on China in the form of Maoism. Mao’s ability to take advantage of China’s bad situation allowed him to receive the support he required in order to rise to power.

Over the course of Mao’s leadership from 1949 until his death in 1976 we can see the significance of his leadership and what made him a good and bad leader. Mao had made some very good decisions to help certain groups but also made some very bad decisions that paid the price, in some cases killing millions. Due to the social and economic changes that then followed by a significant increase in the population and weak leadership that led to rebellions from 1911 that saw the end of 3500years of rule by the Chinese imperial dynasties. The social and economic chaos then led to the formation of two political parties. The CCP, led by Mao Zedong and the GMD led by Chiang Kai Shek. Mao and his party defeated the GMD in 1949 bringing Mao into power. Mao’s main goal was to turn China into a pure communist country. Over the course of Mao’s leadership he did this by making significant social, economic and political changes to the Chinese way of life. However due to his poor leadership and the faults that he made it caused people to oppose him and get in the way of his goal. That is why in 1966 Mao decided to assert his beliefs through a series of decisions, which came to be known as the Cultural Revolution. The Cultural Revolution was a hard time for many people throughout China as Mao enforced many things upon them to achieve his aim of removing capitalism. Mao used the youth of China to be that

Deng Xiaoping has been the individual with the most impact on China since the 1970’s. Along with Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai, he is looked at as one of the key figures in evolution of communism in China . Deng Xiaoping will be remembered as a national hero, but this was not always the case. The real story of Deng includes the fact that, on more than one occasion, his peers ostracized him. During his lifetime he has been a part of the many changes in China throughout the twentieth century. He was by Mao Zedong’s side through all of the struggles of the Chinese Communist Party; battling with Chiang Kai-shek and the Guomindang over
