BASTID, Marianne. "Economic Necessity and Political Ideals in Educational Reform During the Cultural Revolution." The China Quarterly, No. 42 (April-June 1970), 16-45.

A ssesses the "respective weight of economic necessity and political ideals in educational reform in an attempt to shed some light on the nature of the new 'world outlook' which the Cultural Revolution advances. The analysis fol­ lows the dialectical process through which the new order is being worked out: that is, criticism of the old system, proposals for reform and the implementation of reform ."
