Based on an analysis of political and socioeconomic structures in pre-Cultural Revolution China (1949-65), this study attempts to account for patterns of political conflicts in the course of the Cultural Revolution (1966-76). Rather than attributing the unprecedented turbulence of the decade merely to Mao Zedong, a charismatic leader, and a handful of his close associates who inhabited the misty regions at the very top of China's political pyramid, it focuses on such questions as why millions of people participated in the movement, why they tended to behave in certain ways rather than in others, and what their relations were with Mao, and how they affected the process of the movement? It concludes that the Cultural Revolution, as one of the most extraordinary and puzzling events of the twentieth century, did not spring full-blown from anyone's brow. Although Mao appears to have fathered it, various groups within the elite, the middle levels of power, and particularly the masses, for their own reasons, contributed to its development and to its consequences. This study is concerned mainly with one city, Wuhan, an industrial city with about 3 million population located in the central China. The materials presented in this study derive from six main sources: the author's own recollection of the ten years of the Cultural Revolution in Wuhan; his diary and personal correspondence with friends during the decade; national and local official publications; national and local publications run by mass organizations between 1966 and 1969; local archives; and, finally and most importantly, interview data. The author gathered those data during his field research trip to Wuhan in 1986.
