Cheng Feng, or, more commonly known as the "Rectification", was a program initiated by Mao Zedong.
The purpose of the program was to give a basic grounding in Marxist theory, and Leninist principles of party organization, to the thousands of new members who had joined the Chinese Communist Party during it's expansion since 1937. A second, equally important aspect of the movement was the elimination of what Mao called "foreign dogmatism" - essentially, blind imitation of Soviet experience and obedience to Soviet directives.
