- W2081986196 abstract "This is an essential book for specialists seeking to understand the murky issues of class in the People's Republic of China (PRC) since 1949; it is also highly engaging and accessible to non-specialists. Joel Andreas uses Tsinghua University—China's premier science and technology university—as a window onto larger historical patterns of party organization, education, and class in the PRC during this period. Using archival sources, oral history interviews, and secondary literature, he crafts a narrative that offers few surprises for scholars of the PRC but is nevertheless deeply satisfying: familiar pieces come together in new ways to form a crystal-clear picture of class relations and transformations. Pierre Bourdieu's tripartite model of economic, political, and cultural capital serves as the book's analytical frame. After 1949, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) effectively eliminated economic capital as a basis of class division. However, cultural capital (i.e., educational advantages) remained concentrated in the hands of the “old elites,” and the political capital institutionalized in the party bureaucracy had created a class of “new elites.” In the early years of the PRC, a tremendous social gulf separated these two groups: very few intellectuals were party members, and very few party members were intellectuals. By the end of the Mao era, many more people possessed both party membership and a university degree. Why? First, educational institutions served as a key channel for party recruitment, while the children of party officials enjoyed special access to elite schools. Second, Mao's repeated efforts to undermine both the inherited educational advantages of the old elites and the new political privileges of the party officials ironically brought the two groups together as they recognized a shared interest in preserving social stability." @default.
