The Rise of Modern China Four Modernizations One Child Policy Tiananmen Square Massacre China Today The Rise of Modern China

Post Mao Four Modernizations - 1978 Economic policy under Deng Xiaoping Mixed-economy Four aspects Agriculture Industry National Defense (People’s Liberation Army) Science and Technology

China opens markets and allows foreign investment Large industry were state-run Small businesses/enterprise were individually run Again…What kind of an economy is this called? PLA focused on internal control Largest army in world Education emphasized math and the sciences

One Child Policy (1978 - ?) Introduced by Deng Xiaoping Belief that population limits growth of country Need more food, clothes, infrastructure, jobs, cars Need a strong central government – not as successful in India Births per women have dropped from over 3 in the late 70s to 1.8 in 2008 300-400 million fewer people

"For a prosperous, powerful nation and a happy family, please use birth planning."

Human Rights Violation? Over 20,000 forced abortions in 2001 in Huaiji County in Guangdong Province Eugenics  People with “unsatisfactory” physical/mental conditions are forbidden to marry Most violations occur at local level in rural areas

More boys… Male sons preferred Estimated that there will be 30 million more men than women by 2020 Unfair implementation  wealthy and government officials able to avoid penalties/fines "4-2-1 Problem"

"It is forbidden to discriminate against, mistreat or abandon baby girls."

Tiananmen Square - 1989 The rising standard of living and economy led to an increase of political rights and representation Student protests Want democracy/accountability Government responds with army Thousands massacred Political reform put on hold
