The Cultural Revolution often shocks modern people with its brutality and absurdity. The uncontrolled extermination of sparrows, the public executions and torture of "enemies of the people," and foolish economic initiatives, such as the attempt to increase metallurgical production by having peasants smelt iron in ancient blast furnaces. But at the same time, the Cultural Revolution is a rather complex phenomenon. Many questions arise: why did the people support the initiator of the Cultural Revolution, the "Great Helmsman," Mao Zedong? Which Chinese politicians implemented his ideas, and why did they agree to participate at all? Why did Mao launch the Cultural Revolution in the first place?

The results and consequences of the Cultural Revolution, the origins of this social experiment, and its positive aspects are reflected as fully and objectively as possible in this book.
