{"product_id":"9798888900062","title":"Zheng Chaolin, Selected Writings, 1942–1998","description":"\u003cp\u003eZheng Chaolin helped found the Chinese Communist Party's European branch in Paris in 1922 and its Trotskyist Opposition in Shanghai in 1931. He held the world record in political imprisonment - seven years under Chiang Kai-shek (as a revolutionary) and 27 under Mao (as a 'counterrevolutionary'), thus beating by a year Auguste Blanqui's previous record. After joining the revolution in his teens, his commitment never wavered. His life - which spanned from 1901 to 1998 - was coterminous with thecentury and a dramatic embodiment of its vicissitudes. The writing collected in this book reflects that, and provides an indispensable record of his contribution to revolutionary thought in China.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"River Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Haymarket Books |  Paperback \/ softback | Trade paperback (US) |  2023-12-18","offer_id":44230062145791,"sku":"9798888900062","price":52.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0329\/9075\/7001\/files\/BNCImageAPI_355d7ec3-1a9e-491f-b328-a386b7e892b9.jpg?v=1692997146","url":"https:\/\/riverbookshop.com\/products\/9798888900062","provider":"River Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
