I'm surprised it worked, in the sense that they were able to harness market economics and capital accumulation without turning into a capitalist dictatorship like happened in the West. Even with the benefit of hindsight, I'm not sure how they managed to avoid that (there is still time for it to happen though!) but I'm happy for their success.

Pretty much what most of the rest of the world has to say about it, I suppose.
- ch4s3 3y agoI've actually read quite a bit about it. My point is that China was starving under collectivization. You'd probably agree that "civil run enterprises" was a fig leaf, and it was basically just introducing markets. This is inarguable what lifted people out of poverty, not all of that psychotic shit Mao did.
