Economic reforms under Deng Xiaoping
Compared to Mao, Deng is more pragmatic. His main goal as the prime minster of China was to lift people out of poverty and significantly improve the lives of ordinary Chinese people. In justifying opening up and the series of economic reforms that ensued, Deng referred to Marx and his theories, which predicted that nations need to undergo urbanization and a stage of capitalism for a natural socialist transition.

one of the most renowned reforms under Deng was establishing four "special economic zones" along the Southeastern coast of China, with Shenzhen, Shantou, and Zhuhai located in Guangdong province and Xiamen located in Fujian province. Trade was originally controlled by China's centralized government. However, These special zones are where market-driven capitalist polices are implemented to entice foreign investments in China.

Out of the special zones, perhaps the most successful was Shenzhen. It transformed from 126 square miles of villages into a business metropolis. In 1986, China then added 14 additional cities to the list of special economic zones. Bravertz29 (talk) 04:18, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
