Deng Xiaoping (1905-1997) Inheriting a China wrought with social and institutional woes left over from the Cultural Revolution and other mass political movements of the Mao era, Deng was the core of the "second generation" Communist Party leadership. He pioneered "Socialism with Chinese characteristics" and Chinese economic reform, also known as the "socialist market economy", and opened China to the global market. Deng is generally credited with developing China into one of the fastest growing economies in the world and vastly increased the standard of living.
