Purge Of The Inner Mongolian People's Party In The Chinese Cultural Revolution, 1967-69 A Function Of Language, Power and Violence

The Cultural Revolution is a uniquely turbulent and controversial period in modern Chinese history, involving multiple power struggles throughout the People's Party and at all levels. Amongst the most violent episodes was the purging of over a quarter of a million ethnic Mongolians in the Inner Mongolia area from 1967-1969. For the first time, through an in-depth examination of the language used in documentation during the purges the author seeks to focus on discourse as the most meaningful way of understanding the complexity and in some respects mystery of this hateful campaign.Brown, Kerry is the author of 'Purge Of The Inner Mongolian People's Party In The Chinese Cultural Revolution, 1967-69 A Function Of Language, Power and Violence', published 2006 under ISBN 9781901903492 and ISBN 1901903494.
