How did Deng Xiaoping handle political changes? – Dr. Ezra Vogel Part II [3 / 3]

In part two of our interview with Ezra Vogel, he discusses the domestic politics of Deng's career. Professor Vogel outlines the forces that shaped Deng as a leader, from his experiences with senior Chinese communists in Europe in the 1920s to Deng's own "years in the wilderness" in the Cultural Revolution. Loyalty for Deng Xiaoping was based on comradeship over personal friendship - his primary loyalty was to the movement and to its supreme leader, Mao Zedong. Finally, the transformative political changes that Deng shepherded in the 1980s and 1990s were directed by a subtle and strategic support of promising regional leaders and examples rather than by overarching policy models or fiat.
