China

China, a country with a fifth of the world’s population and the last major communist country, is now facing the most uncertain period of its political life since the Communists came to power. China has gambled on a capitalistic market economy to transform its country and lessen the unrest since the demonstrations of Tinananmen Square, although many believe China may be more unstable than ever. On the surface that risk has seemed to have paid off in prosperity. China’s cities are being radically changed by private ownership and private business.

It was because of Tinananmen and the following diplomatic isolation that China decided to seek a new accommodation with the West. They killed

and injured over five thousand demonstrators. In the next few years, Guofeng lost most of his power and had to resign.

“In 1966, Mao Zedong gave his support to the radicals in the Communist Party and ushered in what Zedong called the Cultural Revolution “ (Wakeman 38).
