520    The Chinese Communist Party, as the political leader of 
       the world's largest country and second largest economy, 
       plays an undeniably important role in global politics. 
       Founded in a boarding school in Shanghai in 1921, the 
       Chinese Communist Party is one ofthe oldest ruling parties
       in the world since its takeover of mainland China in 1949 
       under the leadership of Chairman Mao Zedong. Since its 
       inception, the party has survived a civil war with the 
       Kuomintang (1946-1949); the political, cultural, and 
       humanitarian catastrophe of the Great Leap Forward (1958-
       1960), where upwards of 30 million Chinese civilians died;
       and the death of the Chinese Communist Party's dominant 
       leader, Mao Zedong, in 1976. In recent years, 
       intellectuals and party members have been given increasing
       leeway to express their opinions, and Lawrence R. Sullivan
       takes advantage of this new research to provide a 
       comprehensive history of one of the world's most 
       fascinating political movements. The Historical Dictionary
       of the Chinese Communist Party contains a chronology, an 
       introductory essay, an appendix, an extensive bibliography,
       and more than 400 cross-reference dictionary entries on 
       key people, places, and institutions. This book is an 
       excellent access point for students, researchers, and 
       anyone wanting to know more about the Chinese Communist 
       Party.
