从叛军到统治者：中国共产党的百年[有声读物]

毛泽东和1921年成立中国共产党的其他12名年轻人几乎无法想象，不到30年后，他们就会成为统治者。在建党100周年之际，该党仍然掌权，领导着一个准备好成为全球主导的国家。托尼·赛奇（Tony Saich）讲述了中国共产党的权威性、全面的故事，讲述了中国共产党在难以置信的困难下掌权、巩固统治、战胜自作自受的灾难的斗争，以及在其他共产党垮台时的繁荣。赛奇认为，20世纪30年代日本的野蛮入侵实际上帮助了共产党。
然而，共产党一旦掌权，就面临着学习如何统治的艰巨任务。列宁主义体系被认为是僵化的，但事实证明，中国共产党具有适应性。从叛军到统治者表明，该党的持久性归功于其灵活性。但它是否足够灵活，能够实现习近平的“中国梦”随着不断壮大的中产阶级对国家提出新的要求，以及意识形态上对共产主义的退却，党离革命的根基越来越远，挑战正在成倍增加。党的遗产可能是安全的，但它的未来绝不是有保障的。
From Rebel to Ruler: One Hundred Years of the Chinese Communist Party [Audiobook]
Mao Zedong and the twelve other young men who founded the Chinese Communist Party in 1921 could hardly have imagined that less than thirty years later they would be rulers. On its hundredth anniversary, the party remains in command, leading a nation primed for global dominance. Tony Saich tells the authoritative, comprehensive story of the Chinese Communist Party—its rise to power against incredible odds, its struggle to consolidate rule and overcome self-inflicted disasters, and its thriving amid other Communist parties’ collapse. Saich argues that the brutal Japanese invasion in the 1930s actually helped the party.
Once in power, however, the Communists faced the difficult task of learning how to rule. Leninist systems are thought to be rigid, yet the Chinese Communist Party has proved adaptable. From Rebel to Ruler shows that the party owes its endurance to its flexibility. But is it nimble enough to realize Xi Jinping’s “China Dream?” Challenges are multiplying, as the growing middle class makes new demands on the state and the ideological retreat from communism draws the party further from its revolutionary roots. The legacy of the party may be secure, but its future is anything but guaranteed.
