William H. Hinton

William Howard Hinton (; February 2, 1919 – May 15, 2004) was an American intellectual, best known for his work on Communism in China. A Marxist, he is best known for his book ''Fanshen'', published in 1966, a "documentary of revolution" which chronicled the land reform program of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in the 1940s in Zhangzhuangcun (张庄村, pinyin: Zhāngzhuāngcūn), sometimes translated as Long Bow Village, a village in Shanxi Province in northern China. Sequels (''Shenfan'') followed the experience of the village during the 1950s and Cultural Revolution. Hinton wrote and lectured extensively to explain the Maoist approach and later to criticize Deng Xiaoping's market-orient reforms. Provided by Wikipedia
