Gao GangÕs pamphlet "The Economic Reconstruction of Northeast China" details the peopleÕs efforts to rebuild and further industrialize the Manchurian region of China after the victory of the Chinese PeopleÕs Revolution in 1945-49. These efforts strengthened the centralized nature of Chinese economic life, further pushing towards the socialist law of balanced development and opposing distortions in either the exaggeration or abolition of the role of private enterprises, which, of course, were necessarily limited to a great degree. This correct dialectical understanding of economic development led to industrial growth rates in Manchuria of up to 25% annually, significantly higher than five-year plans in other socialist countries. For these successes, Gao Gang was awarded the post as the head of the State Planning Commission and the work of leading and overseeing the First Five-Year Plan in China, which heralded great successes; however, Gao was to see his demise before its completion.
