Why did the Great Leap Forward fail in China?
Peasants grew wealthy under this new program and decided to retire from all forms of work.
Poor implementation, natural disasters, and the withdrawal of Soviet support led to the failure.
Communist China would not fully lend support to the idea of the Great Leap Forward.
The majority of government officials and peasants supported China's traditional economic ideas.
One of the reasons why the Great Leap Forward failed in China is because "Poor implementation, natural disasters, and the withdrawal of Soviet support led to the failure," although it had much more to do with poor implementation.
