The communistic elements of a centralized government, with one party, dictatorship over the proletariat/public, a planned economy and gender equality saw the eradication of societal classes and the liberation of women in China prevail. This in effect penetrated the hidden advantages of women power and diminished the nation’s prolonged halt on nationalistic unification (A glossary of political economy terms ). Prior to the induction of communistic rule during the early sass’s, China’s citizens dwelled in extreme poverty and starvation from the aftermaths of the Boxer Rebellion and weak overspent systems.

Revolutionary groups began sprouting across the nation in the efforts to emancipate the countries oppressed state and these compilations of strife endorsed the welcoming of communism and its utopian objectives (Elaborated. Com Ministries) under the rule of Mao Sedona in 1949. With the aid of this ideology Sedona sought its economic affluence to strengthen and modernism China’s shattered state at the time (Mack). Chin Chili, president of the All-China Women’s Foundation and also vice-chair of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress proclaimed in a CNN port in 2010 that, “the founding of the New China..

. Vibrated women from the unprivileged level to the master[s] of their country, of the society and of themselves… ” (Dyke’s, 201 0) Chin Chili summarily defines the revolutionary impact of this controversial ideology on Chinese women and demonstrates the progress communism has constructed in its lead to liberate women despite its downfalls in other areas. The introduction of Communism in China annihilated the oppression of women to manifest an unknown realm of female power socially, economically and politically.One of the earliest doses f emancipation communism brought to Chinese women was the eradication of diminishing and discriminative customs heavily enthused by the feudal system.

In pre-communist China, the roles of women often comprised of domestic enslavement and exploitation services such as concubine and prostitution (China. Org. CNN). These social moralities were not only mentally and physically traumatizing but also deprecated them to a social level of the lowest kind (Historic Liberation of Chinese Women).Jung Change author of Wild Swans recites a common recurrence of a Chinese concubine under the dual system in her autobiography. It is here that she details her grandmother as the concubine victim to an ill owner/master, saying how she, “was terrified.

As a concubine, her whole future and that of her daughter were in jeopardy, possibly even mortal peril. She had no rights. If [a] general [died], [concubines] were at the mercy of the wife who Chad] the power of life and death.A wife [could] do anything she [wanted] to a concubine, sell her to a rich man, or even into a brothel, either one was very common (Fulton). ” This customary yet unfortunate event contested Chairman Mayo’s communist irrespective of women holding up half the sky as it demonstrated the reality of women as more so material objects than resourceful human beings with endless potentials.

With this in mind, during the first year of communistic rule the ICP declared the removal of the feudal system, thus banning concubine, arranged marriages, child brides and prostitution in the process (Abraham).This necessary action corresponded to the communistic elements of gender equality, zero societal classes and the communal efforts in production as the demeaning state of women stagnated the progression of monistic objectives and prevailed old traditions (Jackson, 2002-2003). The ideology of communism seeks the potential in every participant and once the feudal system in china was removed many females including concubines Were given the opportunity Of an education and this initiated the rise in women power (Fulton).

As the societal demeanor of women began to modify at this point, the status quo of female independence began to sprout from the economic construction of the nation. As identified before, women in pre-communist china were essentially housebound as a normality of their ultra, predominantly confined to domestic services which segregated them from any economic participation. The communistic principal of a planned economy annihilated this old tradition and forced women into the workforce (Differ. Com).By the 8th year under the Communist party of China (CAP), it was estimated that 70% of women in rural areas were involved in agricultural work, with the additional approximation of 3. 286 million women working in urban areas.

This not only reciprocated the status of women in society but also provided them with an independent source of income, establishing the Asia for the rise of empowering women and the deterioration of gender biasness in the workforce (China. Org. CNN). This image to my right/left illustrates a group of girls learning how to make a fashionable coat in a workshop during the sass’s.What appears to be somewhat ordinary is in fact the opposite. These girls represent the first generation of teenagers to grow up in a Chinese society where gender bias in the workforce was scarce and female participation was heavily encouraged.

It also highlights the impact communism had on china’s patriarchy system, the process of girls gaining heir own independence and the perspective of Chairman Mao in his efforts to reshape China. With the wave of economic success, communism also delivered a rise in powerful female leaders in the political realm.Women who were once bound by a blind obedience to men were now capable Of utilizing the opportunities of communism provisions such as the right to an education and the workforce to essentially become the hidden minds leading the country (China. Org. CNN).

The prevailing themes mentioned in this seminar have revolved closely around gender egalitarianism and communal efforts, in injunction with the ruling of china these factors also enabled some of the worlds most infamous and powerful women to arise in China.Kiang King, Mao Godsons wife was proclaimed one of the top 25 most powerful women of the past century in 201 0 according to Time. Com, a global news website. King infamously led the Gang of Four, a group which consisted of three other females who represented the evolution of women in China during the mid-1900 with their immense power and control over the nation. (Dragon, 2010).

The black and white image on the screen of Kiang King being applauded by a crowd of men and women represents the rise of female quality in China after the induction of communism and illustrates the modification in China’s society under this ideology.Male superiority and female inferiority which were common societal mentalities during the imperial period are absent themes in this photo and have been compensated with what seems to be sheer admiration and appraisal. Another image which supports Kiang Sings political rise is the red and white propaganda poster Of herself during the Cultural Revolution. This propaganda exemplifies how China’s culture was evolving and advertised women in a way that made them the primary figure of power.
