After World War II, the communists under Mao Zedong established an autocratic socialist system that, while ensuring China's sovereignty, imposed strict controls over everyday life and cost the lives of tens of millions of people. After 1978, MAO's successor Deng Xiaoping and other leaders focused on market-oriented economic development and by 2000 output had quadrupled.
