Education in China

WHEN the new educational policy of the Cultural Revolution was spelled out and began to be implemented, it was thought that the Chinese were out to overturn the educational pyramid which dominated the superstructure of the world. It was thought that this was the end of elitist education fostered by Liu Shaoqi and buttressed by the ancient mandarin tradition of the country. The Maoists hardly saw any difference between the pre-liberation education and the one imparted after liberation under Liuist dispensation. Just as the aim of preliberation education was to produce comprador intellectuals, cultural puppets of foreigners and politicians of all sorts, the purpose of post-liberation education likewise was to nurture cultural mandarins, bureaucrats and self-seeking intellectuals. Instead of producing ’worthy successors to the revolutionary cause’, what the Chinese schools and universities were churning out were careerists or lily-white scholars who considered physical or manual work to be meant only for the uneducated worker and farmer.
