Deng Xiaoping
Deng Xiaoping (or Teng Hsiao-p'ing) (1904–97) Chinese Communist statesman, Vice-Premier (1973–76; 1977–80); Vice-Chairman of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party (1977–80). Discredited during the Cultural Revolution, he was reinstated in 1977, becoming the most prominent exponent of economic modernization, improving relations with the West, and taking a firm stance in relation to the Soviet Union. Despite the announcement of his retirement in 1989, he was regarded until the end of his life as the effective leader of China. In 1989 his orders led to the massacre of some 2000 pro-democracy demonstrators in Beijing's Tiananmen Square.
