Portion of title Ghosts, shamans, and gender politics in Chinese Communist propaganda, 1942-1953
Abstract "the theoretical, methodological, and comparative frameworks for the discussion of religion, gender, and revolutionary propaganda in China. It then places this discussion in the historical context of wartime Communist headquarters of Yan'an, where the Party launched its first mass campaign against superstition in 1944-45. The campaign illustrates how Mao's mass-line principle compelled propaganda workers to engage with the rural culture in order to create new meanings from old knowledge"-- Provided by publisher.
