He made the remarks at a theoretical symposium to cel- ebrate the NPC 60th anniversary. Zhang said the nation should unswervingly stick to the socialist path of political development with Chinese charac- teristics and enhance the system of people’s congresses. Zhang called on authorities to earnestly fulfill the duties endowed by the Constitution and law and make new contri- butions to the development of socialist democracy. Zhang stressed that the system of people’s congresses is full of vitality and has huge advantages because it has been closely linked not only with the endeavor and unremitting ex- ploration by the Party and the people, but also with the grand achievements made and important experiences gained by the Party and the people. Zhang said while the nation is striving to realize the Chi- nese dream of national rejuvenation, we must be confident in the system of people’s congresses and make efforts to en- hance it. In his speech, Zhang summarized the experiences of the system, which included adhering to the role of the Commu- nist Party of China (CPC) that exercises leadership, sticking to ensure people’s master status and keeping to the rule of law. These principles should be followed and enriched in practice. Zhang stressed adherence to the CPC’s leadership, peo- ple’s master status and the rule of law should be integrated and legislative workers should perform their duties with the focus on the overall interests of the work of the Party and the nation. The event was jointly organized by the General Office of the Standing Committee of the NPC and the China Society for Theoretical Research on the System of the People’s Con- gresses.

    1 The London School of Economics and Political Science New China and its Qiaowu: The Political Economy of Overseas Chinese policy in the People’s Republic of China, 1949–1959 Jin Li Lim A thesis submitted to the Department of International History of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, September 2016. 2 Declaration: I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 98,700 words. 3 Abstract: This thesis examines qiaowu [Overseas Chinese affairs] policies during the PRC’s first decade, and it argues that the CCP-controlled party-state’s approach to the governance of the huaqiao [Overseas Chinese] and their affairs was fundamentally a political economy. This was at base, a function of perceived huaqiao economic utility, especially for what their remittances offered to China’s foreign reserves, and hence the party-state’s qiaowu approach was a political practice to secure that economic utility.

  • Moving Labor Heroes Center Stage: (Labor) Heroism and the Reconfiguration of Social Relations in the Yan’An Period
    Journal of Chinese History (2021), 5,83–106 doi:10.1017/jch.2020.4 . RESEARCH ARTICLE Moving Labor Heroes Center Stage: (Labor) Heroism and the Reconfiguration of Social Relations in the Yan’an Period https://www.cambridge.org/core/terms Nicola Spakowski* Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] (Received 12 August 2019; revised 17 January 2020; accepted 17 January 2020) Abstract Labor heroes are an important phenomenon in the history of socialist China, but they have received only little attention in Western scholarship. This article investigates the labor heroes of the Yan’an period as the pivot in the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) attempt at reconceptualizing society, establishing new social relations and creating a socialist subjec- tivity. It reveals the new symbolic order constructed in the official media, primarily Jiefang Ribao (Liberation Daily), and highlights the relation between labor heroes (as representa- tives of the “masses”), intellectuals, and Mao Zedong in the construction of new hierarchies. , subject to the Cambridge Core terms of use, available at In particular, it shows how the CCP chose work as the fundament of socialist society and the core of a new concept of “collective heroism”; how the stage of the first labor hero assembly was used to orchestrate Mao Zedong as a charismatic leader; and how labor heroes and writers, through direct encounter, redefined their respective place in society. Keywords: labor heroes; China; Yan’an; Mao Zedong; Mao cult 26 Sep 2021 at 21:50:55 , on In his book-length report on Yan’an, published in 1945, foreign correspondent Gunther Stein1 opened the chapter on the peasantry with the remarkable sentence: “No person except Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek himself has such fame in the Chungking areas as 170.106.35.76 Wu Men-yu [= Wu Manyou], a plain peasant, has in the Yenan regions.”2 Stein referred to the various social groups in Yan’an who spoke highly of Wu, including Mao Zedong, .

  • Resolution of the Central People's Government Committee on the Convening of the National People's Congress and Local People's Congresses
    Resolution of the Central People's Government Committee on the convening of the National People's Congress and local people's congresses January 14, 1953 The Common Program of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference stipulates: "The state power of the People's Republic of China belongs to the people. The organs through which the people exercise state power are the people's congresses and governments at all levels. The people's congresses at all levels are elected by the people by universal suffrage. The people’s congresses at all levels elect the people’s governments at all levels. When the people’s congresses at all levels are not in session, the people’s governments at all levels are the organs that exercise all levels of power. The highest organ of power in the country is the National People’s Congress. The government is the highest organ for the exercise of state power.” (Article 12) The Organic Law of the Central People’s Government of the People’s Republic of China stipulates: “The government of the People’s Republic of China is a government of the People’s Congress based on the principle of democratic centralism.” (Article 2) Three years ago, when the country was first established, many revolutionary work was still underway, the masses were not fully mobilized, and the conditions for convening the National People’s Congress were not mature enough. Therefore, in accordance with Article 13 of the Common Program, the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference The first plenary session implements the functions and powers of the National People's Congress, formulates the Organic Law of the Central People's Government of the People's Republic of China, elects and delegates the functions and powers of the Central People's Government of the People's Republic of China to exercise state power.

This thesis has not been submitted previously, either in its entirety or substantially, for a higher degree or qualifications at any other university or institute of higher learning. I certify that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work and that all the assistance received in preparing this thesis and sources has been acknowledged. Matthew James Brazil i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Before and during this project I met a number of people who, directly or otherwise, encouraged my belief that Chinese Communist intelligence was not too difficult a subject for academic study. Michael Dutton and Scot Tanner provided invaluable direction at the very beginning. James Mulvenon requires special thanks for regular encouragement over the years and generosity with his time, guidance, and library. Richard Corsa, Monte Bullard, Tom Andrukonis, Robert W. Rice, Bill Weinstein, Roderick MacFarquhar, the late Frank Holober, Dave Small, Moray Taylor Smith, David Shambaugh, Steven Wadley, Roger Faligot, Jean Hung and the staff at the Universities Service Centre in Hong Kong, and the kind personnel at the KMT Archives in Taipei are the others who can be named. Three former US diplomats cannot, though their generosity helped my understanding of links between modern PRC intelligence operations and those before 1949.
