During China's Cultural Revolution, Chairman Mao Zedong's "rustication program" resettled seventeen million urban youths, known as "sent downs," to the countryside for manual labor and socialist reeducation. This book examines the mechanisms and dynamics of state craft in China, from the rustication program's inception to its termination.
