Correct Answer:

Mao

Explanation:

The correct answer is Mao Zedong who introduced the commune system in China in 1958. The commune system was a radical attempt to transform China's agricultural economy into a collective society. Under the commune system, all land, labor, and resources were owned and controlled by the commune. Peasants were required to work in the commune's fields and were paid according to their needs, not their productivity.
