Needs work[edit]

This article needs a little work. ;)

I've trimmed some of the more obvious nonsense; if no-one else leaps in, I'll do this, but I'll be offline for most of the next three weeks or so.

Some material I cut which may be usable:

"One of the political movements under the communist government in China. Communists are "left-wing," and this was apparently an attempt at purging "rightist" or anti-communist elements in the general populace. Being labeled a "rightist" was a sort of social death penalty during these times. Rightists could be sent to the countryside for "re-education.""

This article is far from complete. At least it should be up to the rehibilitation of these alleged rightists in 1978 - 1979. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Roland Longbow (talkcontribs).


OK throughout my life I have heard the term "purge" used apologetically, euphemistically, or ambiguously. Do you mean that the rightist elements were stripped of party or post, run out of their homes, deported, executed, assasinated, disappeared? What does this mean?Toddster37 02:26, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

All of 'em. In contempory China the movement is always regarded as devastating to China's technicals and intellectuals. Dunno if some body has the time to work on it a bit.

If you are purged, you are stripped of political power, often times either exiled or put under house arrest or put in jail. They rarely kill people outright although prison terms were often very harsh on people. But these offenses were rarely capital crimes and often they will be allowed to live.Yialanliu (talk) 19:09, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

To be translated[edit]

Below is a Chinese article trying to explain the origin of this Anti-rightist movement.


关于文革,众说纷纭。从66年5月《516通知》起到68年9月“祖国江山一片红”为止, 不到两年半的时间,从文斗到武斗,全国上下造反派保皇派打做一团,最后是上自国家 主席,下至厂长村长小学校长,但凡一把手几乎都被打倒。公检法、政府、党委被全面 摧毁,由革委会取而代之。解放战争时,共产党用三年时间推翻了国民党的统治。而文 革,则是共产党用两年半的时间推翻了共产党的统治。其斗争之惊心动魄,其动荡之激 扬猛烈,其混乱之荒唐莫名,亲身经历者多心有余悸。

但冰冻三尺非一日之寒,如此剧烈的社会动荡岂是以一人之力说发动就能发动的?文革 头两年里,全国百姓如火山爆发般的猛烈造反,必然有一个能量积累的过程。而毛泽东 ,也不可能莫名奇妙地发动群众打碎他自己历经千难万苦九死一生建立起来的国家。

文革的一切,到底是从什么时候开始的呢?就让我们从建国的时候开始看一看吧。

49年建国之初,中国参照苏联经验,开始建设社会主义。农村经过土改和合作化,城市 经过工商业的社会主义改造,公有制为主体的社会主义生产关系在中国建立了起来。同 时,在苏联的帮助下,中国开始建设自己的现代工业体系。到57年,第一个五年计划完 成。五年内,以苏联帮助设计的156个项目为中心,中国建成了825个工业企业,包括化 工、化肥、冶金、机械、飞机、汽车等,建立了现代工业化的初步基础。国家建设可谓 形势一片大好。但就在这个时候,问题开始出现了。

1957年,基本上是造反农民出身的各级领导,和以旧社会成长的知识分子为主体的文职 技术人员,因为外行领导内行,发生了普遍的矛盾。当一穷二白的白纸上色彩丰富起来 的时候,“老革命碰到了新问题”,老革命们的水平普遍开始跟不上了。毛泽东开始在 一些地方发现这样的矛盾的时候,鼓励大家向党提意见,搞大鸣大放,希望能够由此提 高领导水平,戒除“主观主义、宗派主义、官僚主义”。毛泽东很清楚他手下这群山大 王的水平,并认为虚心接受群众意见就能在短时间内得到足够的进步。但当几乎所有的 领导都被质疑,而知识分子们普遍开始要求获得一定权力的时候,这就变成了一场全体 官员与全体知识分子之间的权力之争。毛泽东认为这是一个全面的夺权行动,是资产阶 级对无产阶级的猖狂进攻。这场权力之争的结果是55万知识分子或其支持者被打成右派 流放穷乡僻壤,中国知识界遭到极大摧残。接下来,平均文化水平还不到小学毕业的革 命官员们带领全国人民大跃进,“跑步奔向共产主义”,“人有多大胆地有多大产”, “鼓足干劲,力争上游,多快好省”地奔入了三年困难时期。 Arilang talk 13:03, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
