The correct answer is "Great Leap Forward". When the campaign "Great Leap Forward" was established by the Communist Party of China (CPC) in 1958, China was suffering to a backwardness in economy, technology, and industry. The attempt of this program was to transform the country from an agrarian economy into a socialist society. However, the results were not the expected as this campaign is considered the responsible of the Great Chinese Famine.
