AP Success - AP World History: Post-Revolutionary China's Economy

Source 1

"At the founding of the People's Republic, we inherited from old China a ruined economy with virtually no industry. There was a shortage of grain, inflation was acute and the economy was in chaos. But we solved the problems of feeding and employing the population, stabilized commodity prices and unified financial and economic work, and the economy rapidly recovered. . . We are suggesting that we should develop rapidly, but not too rapidly because that would be unrealistic. To do this, we have to invigorate the domestic economy and open to the outside world."

Deng Xiaoping, "Build Socialism with Chinese Characteristics," June 30, 1984.
