About This Item
Berkeley, California: University of California Press, 1991. Hardcover. Very Good+/Very Good+. Hans J. van de Ven's study is based on party documents of the 1920s that have only recently become available, as well as the writings of a wide range of Chinese communists. He analyzes the party's difficulty in building a cohesive organization firmly rooted in Chinese society. While past scholarship has emphasized the influence of Soviet communism on the CCP, van de Ven stresses the thinking and actions of Chinese communists themselves, placing their struggle in the context of China's political history and highly complex society." Octavo, 373 pp. Blue cloth. From private collection. Clean, unmarked copy. Binding, square and tight. Dust jacket shows a little rubbing from shelf wear.
