AbstractThe legacies of Chairman Mao Tse-tung may be controversial, but one of his contributions to Chinese culture will never be questioned by contemporary Chinese youth. This is the dazibao, or "big character poster". Basically, there is only one goal behind the dazibao - drawing the attention of other. This article reviews the development of dazibao at different universities.
