The quote is by Frank Dikotter, saying - "the “history of communism in China is… a history of promises made and promises broken.” I'm really struggling to formulate a response for this! I'm looking for interpretations based on China in the 1950s if possible. Thanks in advance lads! First post, so sorry if my etiquette is wrong :)

Have you read Dikotter's "Mao's great famine" and "The tragedy of liberation"? In which work did you read that quote?
