In his book, which is considered an important reference for understanding one of the most important periods in modern Chinese history, Richard Kurt Kraus in "The Chinese Cultural Revolution" provides us with an in-depth analysis of a decade of radical transformations that China witnessed between 1966 and 1976. Far from focusing on the personality of " "Mao Zedong" as a unilateral leader of the revolution, Krauss takes a more comprehensive approach, linking the policies of the elite in Beijing with the profound changes that have taken place in Chinese society and culture. The book sheds light on the radical transformations witnessed in the daily life of the Chinese in its various aspects, from work to the economy to social relations. Krauss does not neglect to place the Cultural Revolution in its global context, linking it to the radical youth movements that swept the world in the 1960s. He also analyzes its impact on international relations, especially the relationship between China and the United States.
