Tips

history
Short for 土地改革. It usually means the campaign the Communist Party carried out from the late 1940s to the early 1950s: landlords' land was confiscated and shared out among poor peasants, and many landlords were denounced at mass rallies and killed. A few years later the land was collectivized.
