Chapter 8 section 1

We begin our China unit today… read and take notes on section 1 for Friday.

Focus on the following while reading:

1. Legacy of Confucianism: Impact on political culture, government and bureaucracy
2. Loss of Sovereignty resulting from the Opium Wars (extraterritoriality refers laws protecting foreigners from prosecution for crimes Chinese citizens would otherwise be penalized for)
3. Describe the Chinese population (ethnicity, size, age, gender, etc.)
4. What was the goal of the Cultural Revolution?
5. What were the various factions (political groups) throughout Chinese history?
6. What did Deng Xiaoping mean when he said "Black cat or White cat doesn't matter, only matters whether it hunts"
7. Who was the "Gang of Four"
