China Political Reports 1960-1971 is the second of two collections which have been established as an integrated series by the editor Robert L. Jarman, F.R.G.S. The documents are listed in detail at the front of each volume and source references given for the benefit of scholars. These three new volumes publish the periodic political reports received from China by the British Foreign Office for the decade 1961–1970. The materials fall into the following categories, subject to some variation in the evolving titles and formats of the reports: Annual Reports; Peking Fortnightly Summaries; Peking Observations; Shanghai Summaries; Occasional Reviews. In this period is the recovery from the 'Great Leap Forward' and the main thrust of the 'Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution' which two events alone would sustain research for years to come but also within this period are the huge foreign relations disputes that grew out of the complications of the cold war.
