SUMMARY:Between Ideals and Reality: The Working Class‘s Role in China’s
  Education Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Co-sponsored with the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies\n\nTh
 e assertion that “the working class must lead everything” was a fundam
 ental tenet in the ideological framework of the education revolution durin
 g Mao’s era in China. This principle\, along with the beliefs that “ed
 ucation serves proletarian politics” and “education should be combined
  with productive labor”\, underscored the legitimacy and importance of t
 he working class in this transformative period. This talk aims to delve in
 to the multifaceted role of the working class in shaping the educational l
 andscape during this revolution. It will explore the instrumental role of 
 the Workers’ Mao Zedong Thought Propaganda Teams within the educational 
 systems and the impact of the School Revolutionary Committees within educa
 tional institutions. Furthermore\, it will examine the implementation and 
 outcomes of labor education across various types of schools during this er
 a. By doing so\, this discussion seeks to illuminate the complex interplay
  between class\, politics\, and education within the context of China’s 
 historical and socio-political fabric.
