Sumari:China's cultural revolution of the 1960s had an important precedent in the Soviet Union during the First Five-Year Plan, when established authorities and institutions in culture and the professions came under attack from militant Communist intellectuals.

This important book, focused on the transition from NEP to Stalinism, presents both sides of the vigrous current debate.
