Occurance of famine
_____________________

Party breakdown
-----------------
Because of conflicting ideology between chinese communist party and nationalist party and aftermath fraction between radical and soft reformist; the democratic ideology get suppressed and communist ideology get evolved.
The extreme terror initiated by red guards to suppress growing middle class .intellectuals.. thus led to downfall of economic.. education and party system of china.
Ans2:
After the attack of Japanese , Mao was able to secure the rule of communist party over China. Though Socialist , the Proletarian Culture of China was different from Russia's
as it included all the social classes as opposed to Russia's rule of "middle class".
The strongest advocates of Mao's ideology were peasants , labourers and students. The critical areas of economy were brought under government control and farms in rural areas were turned into communes - where people simultaneously carried out cultivation.
The ideology of being a marxist-communist was more important than achieving any prophesy in the field. The stress on this stringent non-expertised but rigid method focusing purely on ideology was not healthy.To achieve industrialization people were encouraged to
set up furnaces in their backyard to produce steel. Steel thus produced was industrially unusable.
Slowly , the critic against this approach of Mao grew stronger . To suppress this , Mao used
"The Red Guard" - a combination of army and students. Students and professionals were sent to rural areas to spread the communist ideology and profess against old culture.
Trade and commerce was ruined. Foreign ties were severed leading to minimum industrialization and upheaval of more land-based activities.
Naturally , this modernisation phase saw no modernisation and threw back China to a period of uncertainty and turmoil.
