In this groundbreaking volume, based on extensive research in Chinese archives and libraries, Jan Kiely explores the preCommunist origins of the process of systematic thought reform or reformation (ganhua) that evolved into a key component of Mao Zedongs revolutionary restructuring of Chinese society. Focusing on ganhua as it was employed in Chinas prison system, Kielys thoughtprovoking work brings the history of this critical phenomenon to life through the stories of individuals who conceptualized, implemented, and experienced it, and he details how these techniques were subsequently adapted for broader social and political use.
