Summary

After more than twenty years of economic and political reform, China is a vastly different country than the one left by Mao. Almost all of the characteristic policies, institutions, and practices of the Maoist era have been abandoned. The goals of the revolution in China's domestic and foreign policies have been replaced by emphasis on economic modernization, radical social transformation, and an increasingly significant international role.
