Description: Victims of the Cultural Revolution : Testimonies of China's Tragedy, Hardcover by Wang, Youqin, ISBN 0861542231, ISBN-13 9780861542239, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US The very purpose of history is to gather up what is about to be lost for ever. Between 500,000 to 2 million people died in the Cultural Revolution. Yet a silence remains as to why. Over eleven years in Mao’s China, an all-out assault on 'class enemies’ took place. Teenagers smashed their teachers’ skulls. Doctors were tortured in jail as foreign spies. Ordinary people condemned 'counter-revolutionaries’ to execution – and then went home and ate their dinner. This was less than fifty years ago. But the victims are being forgotten already. Wang Youqin unmasks the true brutality of the Cultural Revolution. Documenting the deaths of over six hundred individuals, Victims of the Cultural Revolution calls on us to remember the evil ideological fanaticism wreaks and pays tribute to all those who suffered.
