Abstract
Despite a voluminous quantity of studies on Chinese politics, little is known about how Chinese political ideology has influenced policymaking. The formation and changes in housing policies are analyzed in light of shifting political ideology in the People's Republic of China, from the precommunization period through to Deng Xiao Ping's open door Policy. Political ideology in China functioned as a means of socialization early in Mao's rule, political struggle during the Cultural Revolution, and legitimization of economic and sectoral policies during the Open Door period.
