Abstract
This is a history of a Chinese village's economic development through the periods of land reform, collectivization, the Cultural Revolution, and decollectivization. The focus is on comparing the village’s [i]per capita[/i] productivity and income during these periods. The last period showed the most progress once the state permitted sideline activities and opened markets. The discussion emphasizes how such changes also improved the status of women.
