  Offers an explanation of extreme radicalism in Chinese reform movements from the late nineteenth century through the Cultural Revolution and into the post-Mao era. This book demonstrates how datong - an ancient concept that can be translated as 'great harmony' - and other elements of Chinese thought have led China down a unique political path.
