3 Deng Xiaoping (1905-1997) ‏ Inheriting a China wrought with social and institutional woes left over from the Cultural Revolution and other mass political movements of the Mao era, Deng was the core of the "second generation" Communist Party leadership. He pioneered "Socialism with Chinese characteristics" and Chinese economic reform, also known as the "socialist market economy", and opened China to the global market. Deng is generally credited with developing China into one of the fastest growing economies in the world and vastly increased the standard of living. Deng Video 1Deng Video 1 Video 2Video 2

4 De-Maoization ► Agriculture ► Industry ► Science ► Defense “The 4 Modernizations” Progress in: Class struggle was no longer the central focus!

5 Gap Between Rich & Poor Deng: If you open a window, some flies naturally get in! The new Socialist economy encouraged some competition and trade. This allowed some Chinese to become wealthy, while others became poor, as happens in all economic competition. Deng Video 1Deng Video 1 Video 2Video 2

8 Tiananmen Square, 1989 Student activist, Wang Dan, Beijing University With the success of some limited Chinese style capitalism, many Chinese began to seek greater freedoms. In 1989, students organized a protest calling for the Chinese government to allow more free speech and to open China to democracy. These students met in Tiananmen Square in the heart of Beijing.

14 Tiananmen Square, 1989 The Massacre: A Human Body Crushed by an Army Tank Challenged by the civilian population of Beijing who were supporting their students, the Chinese tanks moved in, and over, Chinese citizens. 700 – 3000 Chinese people died in the Tiananmen Square Massacre. Many lost their lived because the open square was so packed with people, they couldn't move the crowd away from the advancing tanks. There was no where to go, and people on the edges, unaware of what was happening didn't know to move out of the way.

22 Hu Jintao—President of China Hu joined the Communist Party at age 23. He graduated in 1965 with a degree in engineering and won a job at the university as a teacher and "political instructor" responsible for indoctrinating students in Marxist theory. In 1968, during the chaotic Cultural Revolution, Hu was sent to the remote and impoverished Gansu province to build houses for peasants displaced by a new dam. In 1984, Hu became leader of the Communist Youth League. Hu Jintao became president of the People's Republic of China in 2003, succeeding Jiang Zemin. One of Mr. Hu's few recorded sayings is that success in life "requires resolve, attention to concrete matters and courage in making decisions".

23 President Hu’s “China Model” ►dynamic economic growth ►personal but not political freedoms ►cultural enlightenment ►concern for the welfare of all citizens ►a free market energized by a vigorous nonpublic (i.e. private) sector ►unrelenting political and media control ►All of these lead to a “Harmonious Society.”

24 Hu Jintao Hu Putin Bush ►Dedicated to making China a world power ►Working for consensus, not as an authoritarian leader. ►Conservative but steady economic and social reforms ►Significant economic ties to USA and others ►Investment in 3 rd world nations, especially in Africa

25 Xi Jinping, China’s new president: March 14, 2013 He was elected by the People’s Congress and received 2,952 votes for, one vote against, and three abstentions. Xi was described in Washington Post article by those who know him as "pragmatic, serious, cautious, hard- working, down to earth and low-key." Xi was also described as a good hand at problem solving and "seemingly uninterested in the trappings of high office."

26 Xi is described as "the kind of guy who knows how to get things over the goal line.” Meeting together in the White House last year, President Obama also said it was "vital" that Washington maintained a strong relationship with Beijing. Mr Xi said he hoped his visit would deepen mutual understanding and friendship between the two powers.
