Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research is to examine China from the beginning of the 1940's to the end of the 1950's (the Mao Zedong period) and to clarify a structural characteristic of Chinese Communist Party (CCP) rule. To achieve this purpose, first, an analysis of the sense of values among peasants during the 1940's in rural North China highlights the importance of "Mian-zi" in their consciousness. Second, a study of the documents written by Chinese Communists during the civil war reveals that the ultimate right to the interpretation of the will of the peasants fell exclusively to Mao Zedong and that the justification for CCP rule was entirely based on this identification of Mao as "the one most capable of understanding the will of the people". In addition, by examining the policy decision processes for the collectivization of agriculture in the 1950's, this study demonstrates that rule in possession of a similar structure was continued and adopted by the People's Republic of China.
