Answer:
The correct answer is A. Mao Zedong's "Great Leap Forward" could best be described as a program designed to change China's economy.
Explanation:
The Great Leap Forward was a campaign launched by Mao Zedong between 1958 and 1960, which aimed to make the People's Republic of China a developed and socially egalitarian nation in record time, accelerating the collectivization of the countryside through forced agrarian reform and urban industrialization. However, it is considered the main responsible for the Great Chinese Famine, which caused about 20 million deaths. The Great Leap Forward is still used today as a criticism of the model of planned economy, communism and agrarian reform.
