How the Red Sun Rose: The Origins and Development of the Yan'an Rectification Movement, 1930–1945, is a history book written by Gao Hua and published by the Chinese University of Hong Kong Press in 2000. It documents the origins and consequences of the Yan'an Rectification Movement as well as the ascendance of Mao Zedong as the paramount leader of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).[1][2] The book is banned in mainland China.[3][4]
Gao's book starts with Mao's elimination of the Anti-Bolshevik League and elaborates on the vicissitudes of Mao's career within the CCP, featuring his conflict with the Soviet-trained Wang Ming (1937–1941). After defeating Wang, Mao launched the Yan'an Rectification Movement (1942–1945)—the focus of Gao's book.
Gao's book rewrote scholarly understanding of the Yan'an Rectification Movement from the earlier Party-line narratives of Edgar Snow and other scholars.[note 1] The book's English version, translated by Stacy Mosher and Guo Jian and published in 2018, received the Joseph Levenson Post-1900 Book Prize's Honorable Mention in 2020.[1][5]
