The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) oversaw an economic and social campaign known as the Great Leap Forward (Second Five Year Plan) in the People's Republic of China (PRC) from 1958 to 1962. Through the establishment of people's communes, CCP Chairman Mao Zedong began the effort to transform the nation from an agriculture - based economy into a communist society. Mao ruled that more should be done to enhance grain production and introduce industry to the rural. Local authorities fought to meet or exceed quotas that were based on Mao's overstated promises out of fear of anti-Rightist campaigns, collecting fictitious "surpluses," and abandoning farmers to starve to death. Higher authorities were afraid to speak out about the economic catastrophe these policies were causing.
