上山下郷運動
Wikipedia definition
1. Down to the Countryside MovementThe Down to the Countryside Movement was a policy instituted in the People's Republic of China in the late 1960s and early 1970s. As a result of the anti-bourgeois thinking prevalent during the Cultural Revolution, Mao Zedong declared certain privileged urban youth would be sent to mountainous areas or farming villages in order to learn from the workers and farmers there. Mao's policy differed from Liu Shaoqi's early 1960s sending-down policy in its political context.
