After the Great Leap Forward, China introduced a new reform that
established a minimum wage.
created agricultural communes.
destroyed excess agricultural crops.
allowed wage competition for laborers.

The correct answer is allowed wage competition for laborers.

After conquering power in 1949, participating in the Korean War and the success of the 1st Five-Year Plan (1953-1957), Chinese leader Mao Zedong launched the Great Leap Forward (1958-1962), a program of deep reforms whose aim was to accelerate the march towards communism.

One of the creations of the Great Leap was the Popular Communes. They would replace the old agricultural production cooperatives, seeking to remove the last remnants of private property. The Communes brought together about 20,000 to 30,000 people, creating a social, agricultural, industrial, administrative, cultural, medical and military unit. They were administered by a Central Committee that controlled production and organized the Work Brigades.

This change in the direction of the paths of the revolution shifted the center of investment from the State to the countryside and no longer to the basic industries located in the cities. One of the objectives was to unite agricultural and industrial production, by installing industrial equipment in rural areas. In this way, the Great Leap intended to overcome the division between countryside and city, instituted by capitalism since its genesis.

2. The value of high voter turnout

Explanation:

Both authors agree that generally half the population votes but the first one believes that this number is too high and the second believes it is not high enough.

They therefore disagree on the value of a high voter turnout with the first arguing that only the truly informed should vote which is a small section of the population while the second wants many more people to be voting and so supports mandatory voting.
