The book challenges the prevailing narrative about China's commune system, presenting evidence that it was not merely a failed social experiment. Through previously inaccessible data, it argues that the commune modernized agriculture, boosted productivity, and set the stage for China's subsequent rapid economic growth under Deng Xiaoping. This re-evaluation offers a new perspective on the significance of the commune system in China's development trajectory.
