Maostalgia

Description

In this program, Niall Ferguson asks how China manages to live under a Communist government but with a thriving capitalist economy. He travels to the new supercity of Chongqing and to the rural backwaters of Anhui to talk with survivors of Mao's regime, new billionaires, and Maoist nationalists, and finds the way China is governed now is eerily similar to the way it was under the First Emperor.
