This is a 15-page (Double-spaced) research paper that addresses the questions “What are the origins
and the dynamics of Chinese communism? Under what conditions did communism
arise and develop? In other words what key factors would explain the rise of communism
in the Chinese context?” My thesis statement is “The
origins and dynamics of the Chinese communist state are rooted in historical
grievances, particularly in relation to the geographical and climate conditions
as well as the ideological factors that have made way for a more centralized government.
This essay aims to explore the historical factors that have led to the modern
Chinese political regime as we see it today. This essay will examine the
relationship between the events that have happened in China’s history and how
that has shaped the government structure as well as the relationship between
government and civilians.” It needs to include 20 scholarly sources and reference the book Chinese politics and government by Sujian Guo (my Professor).
