Shownotes

For decades, China was transformed by revolution, war, and the radical policies of Mao Zedong.

After Mao’s death, however, power eventually fell to a man who had twice been purged, stripped of his positions, and sent into political exile.

He would never hold China’s highest formal office, yet he became its most powerful leader, set the country on a dramatically different course, and was responsible for the China we know today.

Learn more about the remarkable rise of Deng Xiaoping on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
