'''Maoism''' or '''Mao Zedong Thought''' is a type of [[File:Marxlen.png]] [[Marxism–Leninism|Marxism-Leninism]] associated with Mao Zedong, the chairman of the Communist Party of China. As an Ideology, Maoism's main ideological focus is instating a communist system in [[File:Farm.png]] [[Agrarianism|agrarian]] and pre- [[File:Indust.png]] [[Industrialism|industrial]] societies (specifically China in the middle 20th century). Maoism can be identified as [[File:Soc.png]] [[Socialism|economically far-left]], [[File:Totalitarian.png]] [[Totalitarianism|totalitarian]], and [[File:Prgess.png]] [[:Category:Culturally Left|culturally far-left]]. It is important to note that [[file:MLM.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism-Maoism|Maoism proper]] was formulated by [[file:Cball-Peru.png]] Chairman Gonzalo and the [[file:Mlmg.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism-Maoism|Peruvian Communist Party]].

Maoism can be seen as both a continuity and rupture with classical [[file:Marxlen.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism]]. Mao, throughout his Marxist revolution in China, formulated 5 new major additions to [[file:Marxlen.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism]], being the Mass Line, Protracted People's War, New Democracy, Cultural Revolution, and Three Worlds Theory. |

During the times of Chairman Mao, his thought was known as Mao Zedong Thought. |
|||
==History== |
|||
===Formation=== |
|||
Maoism is a variant of [[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism]] in China that was developed in the 1930s in the unrecognized state [[File:Cball-ChineseSovietRepublic.png]] ‘China Soviet Republic’ as a major rebellion force against the [[File:RightKMT.png]] [[Authoritarian Conservatism|authoritarian nationalist government of]] [[Tridemism|Right KMT]]. At that time, Mao was known in the CPC for his focus on the rural ereas and objetion to the "orthodox" route of Lenninist revolution which emphasised wresting the control of cities . Instead, Mao believed in "rural ereas encircle the cities", and founded (at least played an important part in founding) the first rural revolutionary base in China- Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base. |
|||
Mao continued having conflicts with the "Bolsheviks" represented by [[File:WangMing.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism|Wang Ming]], who loyally followed Stalin’s doctrine of advocacy of rapid industrialization in China. Mao developed his idea of peasantry-worker unity as vanguards of the communist revolution in China’s specific case, and argued that a strong alliance with the peasantry is a necessity in China for the revolution to succeed. During the Long March, Mao's brilliant generalship formed a sharp contrast with the failure of Chinese Central Red Army under his opponents, which won him a sable military status. However, it was not until the mid-40s that he exactly dominated the party. |
|||
During the Japanese invasion of China, Mao advocated for a United Front with the Nationalist faction, however within limits. He beated Wang Ming (who emphasised the United Front above the party's independence) and Zhang Guotao (who was later considered betraying the CPC and turning to the [[File:RightKMT.png]]KMT)<ref>Even under the United Front, the CPC and the KMT were in a quasi hostile state. </ref>. After eight years of fighting together, the United Front proved victorious over Japanese aggression. The most notable battle of that the communists fought in the war was the [[w:Hundred Regiment Offensive|Hundred Regiment Offensive]]. The seventh national congress of the CCP in 1945 identified "Mao Zedong Thoughts" as the guiding ideology of the party, along with Marxism-Lennism. |
|||
===Development=== |
|||
[[File:Redbook.jpg|thumb|A propaganda poster depicting a Chinese worker with Mao's Little Red Book. (Translation: Let philosophy becomes the sharp weapon of the masses.)]] |
|||
Immediately after the end of the [[w:Second Sino-Japanese War|Sino-Japanese War]], the communists started seizing land and attacking the nationalist force<ref>According to the communists themselves, it was Chiang Kai-shek who started the first attact.</ref>. The army size was expanded to 1.2 million (With 2.6 million militias) versus 2 million nationalist troops (With 2.3 million militias) with the supplies of Soviet weapons from the equipment Stalin seized in Manchuria. Due to Chiang’s poor military skills, the massive collapse or morales of the nationalist soldiers after eight years of war with Japan, hyperinflation in the nationalist-controlled regions, and the American interference in the Marshall Mission, Mao and the communists were able to seize the Mainland in 4 years time after major battles that defeated the incompetent and corrupt military of the nationalists and Chiang’s extremely unpopular government. |
|||
After the Communist force won the civil war, Mao declared that China entered a stage which was called the [[w:New Democracy|“New Democratic Revolution”]] by the newly established Chinese government. The CPC formed an alliance called the 'United Front' with parties such as [[File:RCCK.png]] [[Tridemism|the RCCK]]. Political dissents, Republic of China/KMT sympathizers, and landlords were purged in the subsequent political cleansings such as [[File:RedTerror.png]] [[w:Campaign to Suppress Counterrevolutionaries|Campaign to Suppress Counterrevolutionaries]] and the [[File:AntiConservatism.png]] [[w:Anti-Rightist Campaign|Anti-Rightist Campaign]]. However, just as socialist construction began the Soviet Union would renounce [[File:Stalin.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism|Joseph Stalin’s theory of Marxism-Leninism]] and allied Eastern European states that had developed exactly in line with it began to one by one fall to this new ideology. China, however, refused to follow [[File:Khrusch.png]] [[Khrushchevism|Khrushchev’s path]] and denounced him as a revisionist pseudo-socialist eventually, even though the PRC supported Khrushchev’s invasion of Hungary and pressed for it. Therefore, the Sino-Soviet Split split happened with Soviet projects scrapped, economic aid cut off, and scientists left China, which was detrimental to China’s economic development. At this point began a debate amongst the CPC arose over whether they had progressed the relations of production far enough in order to solely focus on economic development. Mao opposed this line, and instead believed that economic development could be obtained without sacrificing development in the relations of production. Agricultural policies such as collective farming and mass production were implemented, which was known as the ‘[[w:Great Leap Forward|Great Leap Forward]]’ that failed to achieve its main objectives due to a complex variety of reasons and led to the [[w:Great Chinese Famine|Great Chinese Famine]]. |
|||
After the Sino-Soviet Split, the party began to formulate the idea that China develops an independent course of their economy. Mao wanted to utilize the resources they had gathered in the abundance of labor and popular enthusiasm. Water conservancy and irrigation eventually led to sustained growth in agricultural production. Flood defense was developed along with the practice of Terracing. The slogan “walking on two legs” was used to describe the pattern of industrial development. The development of small to medium size industry alongside the development of the emphasis on heavy industry. Compared to the more rigid and centralized economic system which had prevailed in the USSR, this period saw a different course of events with China adopting its unique form of the command economy. The rural industry established made use of labor-intensive strategies as opposed to plans entirely dependent on capital. As they served more local interests they did not require the development of nationwide infrastructure to prevail. Life expectancy (partially due to Mao’s pro-natalist policy) rose from 36 years in to 62 years and the literacy rate in China tripled to a record 60% from 20% in 1949 as the government introduced universal healthcare and education. Not only were smaller rural industries somewhat improved, but the heavy industry was accelerated as well with one example being the Teaching oil field. China also developed its own nuclear weapons with the help of engineers such as Qian Xuesen, becoming the fifth nuclear power on earth. Additionally, during the Mao era, the female labor participation rate was over 70%. After Mao died, it continued to decline. Despite these achievements, 88.1% of Chinese were still living in absolute poverty in 1980, with one of the lowest GDP per capita on earth. |
|||
However, Mao feared a threat looming over the country as he believed if capitalism could be restored in the Soviet Union, why couldn't it be restored in the People’s Republic of China? To many, it seemed a far-off and distant threat. However many people (such as Mao Zedong himself and the [[File:RedGuard.png]] [[Revolutionary Progressivism|Gang of Four]]) believe they saw the beginning of the capitalist road among official party members. Mao believe that the reactionary ideology ran deep within China, as a result of years of hosting such relations of production. Land Reform annihilated the landlord class, but the conservative ideology was still prevalent in China, especially in rural regions. Mao feared that China was not travelling down the socialist path, and rather was on track to regress to capitalism. The [[File:Ultraprogressivism.png]] [[w:Cultural Revolution|Great Proletariat Cultural Revolution]] happened in this context and the theory driving the event is simple: “The class struggle continues, and is even intensified under socialism”. The Cultural Revolution oversaw the destruction of many Chinese traditional cultural architectures and the prosecution of many intellectuals and teachers, and economic activities were halted in many regions. Many members that belonged to the so-called [[w:Five Black Categories|Five Black Categories]] and their family were also prosecuted in this era. |
|||
In the 1970s, as the relationship between China and the [[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism|USSR]] further soured with the Chinese government isolated internationally, China began to look up to its old capitalist rivals. The USA also abandoned its hardline anti-communist doctrine in favor of pragmatism and realpolitik under [[File:Nixon.png]] [[Eco-Conservatism|Richard Nixon]] and [[File:HenryKissinger.png]] [[Neoconservatism|Henry Kissinger]] to deter the common enemy - the USSR. Therefore, the Ping-pong diplomacy initiative under [[File:ZhouEnlai.png]] [[Machiavellianism|Zhou Enlai]] eventually led to an improvement of the US-China relationship and the Sino-American rapprochement. A gradual establishment of diplomatic relationships happened between China and [[File:Necon.png]] [[Neoconservatism|western, NATO-aligned countries]], and eventually, the United States in 1979, with these countries renouncing their recognization of [[File:RightKMT.png]] [[Tridemism|Taiwan under the Kuomintang]]. The implications of the events were enormous as China since then, despite being a communist country, had a much better relationship with the West and NATO than with the USSR and the Eastern Socialist Camp. |
|||
===[[File:HuaGuofeng.png]] Hua Guofeng and the Two Whatevers=== |
|||
The new government of [[File:HuaGuofeng.png]] Hua Guofeng arrested the Gang of Four and imprisoned them for life and ended the Cultural Revolution. Hua emphasized economic development over popular movements, and proposed the “[[w:Two Whatevers|Two Whatevers”]], reaffirming his loyalty to the principles of Mao Zedong Thought. Hua also visited [[File:Cball-Yugoslavia.png]] [[Titoism|Yugoslavia]] and [[File:Cball-Romania.png]] [[National Communism|Romania]] and improved the relationship between the PRC government with these countries, as well as tried to learn the modern industrial experiences from them. The relationship between China and western countries such as [[File:Cball-Germany.png]] FRG, [[File:Cball-Japan.png]] Japan, and the [[File:Cball-US.png]] U.S. improved as China took many loans from these countries. Hua subsequently launched the West Leap Forward project, which brought many technologies and allowed more foreign investment without changing the nature of the command economy with ambitious but often unobtainable economic targets. The West Leap Forward failed and led to criticisms within the party and the weakening of Hua’s position, allowing [[File:DengXiaoping.png]] Deng and his allies to attack Hua for “dogmatism,” which eventually toppled his leadership. |

One of the reasons that Hua’s regime faltered quickly can be attributed to his lack of power legitimacy as Hua was not from the Red Army and PLA background and made no contributions to the CCP’s revolution. Hua also promoted Deng and other Mao era dissidents like Ye Jianying and [[File:Huism.png]] Hu Yaobang, who wanted broad reforms of Mao’s ideals and his [[File:Statesoc.png]] command economy rather than just the end of the cultural revolution his leadership wanted. Hua’s regime also introduced small liberations of party control and more pluralism, which allowed Deng’s allies to emerge and seize power from his “Little Gang of Four” clique. |

===Modern Day=== |
|||
In Modern China, the rising social and economic inequality as well as the return of the capitalist class with red paint and exploitation of workers has caused a wave of resurgence of Maoist support such as the banned [[File:MLM.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism-Maoism|Maoist Communist Party of China]]. However, none of these movements are formidable and are usually crushed by the [[File:Dengf.png]] [[Dengism|Modern CPC]] with an iron fist. |
|||
==Overseas== |
|||
===[[File:Cball-Japan.png]] Japan=== |
|||
The Maoist movement in Japan began in 1969 following a split in the New Left Communist League, where political leaders such as Fusako Shigenobu, Tsuneo Mori and Takaya Shiomi split from the group due to their occult-like anti-Japaneseism tendencies. They began their political movement without gaining initial support, only giving them a top member count of 400. Due to this, the group was quickly dispersed by the late 70s. The Japanese United Red Army was considered by many Maoist groups as some form of cautionary tale for their members, as they had committed to robberies, civilian-targeted terrorist attacks and kidnapping for extortion incidents. They are famous in Japan for holding a stowaway lodge hostage and turning it into a military centre, and for robberies across multiple banks in Japan. Their members also were sent to Beirut to fight for the Lebanese Communist Party and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. The group later dissolved in the early 80s, where their leader advocated for peaceful means of Communism for Japan.<br /> |
|||
==Additions to [[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism]]== |
|||
Maoism can be seen as both a continuation and split from classical [[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism]]. Mao, throughout his Marxist revolution in China, formulated 5 new primary additions to [[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism]], being the Mass Line, Protracted People's War, New Democracy, the theory of Cultural Revolution and the theory of the Three Delineated Worlds. |
|||
===Mass Line=== |
===Mass Line=== |
||
The Mass Line is a theory that states that the Masses of Peasants and Workers must be in unison ideologically with the Communist Party. Therefore, Communist Party members must go unto the masses and consult their needs and gather information, which will be further relayed to the party. The party then interprets this information within a Socialist framework and applies this in a cultural or economic change. |

The party then interprets this information within a Socialist framework and applies this in a cultural or economic change. |
||
===Protracted People's War=== |
===Protracted People's War=== |
||
Protracted People’s War, often abbreviated as PPW is what Maoists view as the proletarian’s military strategy. Protracted People’s War combines insurgency with guerrilla warfare, offensives by the People’s Army, concentrated under the leadership of the Communist party, It is a misunderstanding to believe that this form war is simply a peasant strategy used in semi-feudal and semi-colonial backwaters. The People’s War uses three revolutionary instruments. The United Front, the People’s Army, and the Party itself. The United Front allows for agitation in areas where the party has yet to establish base areas. The People’s Army is the method of keeping politics in command of the gun, the Party having an armed wing. The “Party” is self-explanatory. Protracted People’s War also emphasizes the protracted nature of revolutions, hence the name. |
|||
Protracted People's War, or PPW, is a Guerilla Warfare theory developed by Chairman Mao during the Communist revolution against [[file:Nation.png]] Nationalist China. It stresses the importance of a long and protracted struggle against [[file:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism]] and [[file:Imp.png]] [[Imperialism]], rejecting the [[file:Insarch.png]] [[Insurrectionary Anarchism|Insurrectionist]] theory mostly pushed by [[file:Awaj.png]] [[Anarchism|Anarchists]]. The Vanguard Party will engage in a civil war with the current government through guerilla/mobile warfare, attacking military bases, supply lines and important structures, all while base-building the masses in support of the Party. |
|||
===New Democracy=== |
===New Democracy=== |
||
[[File:Newdem.png]] The New Democratic society is a transitional form between the New Democratic Revolution and the [[File:Soc-h.png]] [[Socialism|Socialist Revolution]]. Different from the Socialist Society, the New Democracy's Fundamental task is not to overthrow [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism|Capitalist Society]], but overthrow [[File:Imp.png]] [[Imperialism|Imperialist Society]] and [[File:Feud.png]] [[Feudalism|Feudalist Society]]. It's also different from Capitalist Society because its leadership is the proletariat. Its goal is "establish a Democratic Republic under the joint dictatorship of all anti-imperialist and anti-feudal people under the leadership of the proletariat." |
|||
'''WIP''' |
|||
===Cultural Revolution=== |
===Cultural Revolution=== |
||
The theory of Cultural Revolution, originating in the People’s Republic of China shortly after the breaking of relations with the Soviet Union is one which states that the conclusion of the initial proletariat revolution and the dawn of proletariat dictatorship does not wipe out bourgeois ideology. On the contrary, it asserts that the class struggle is intensified during socialist transition and a near-continuous struggle against such ideology and its social roots. The target of cultural revolution is often aspects of the superstructure, often encompassing various existing markers of a capitalist or even a dynasty past. |
|||
'''WIP''' |
|||
===Three Worlds Theory=== |
|||
===Three Delineated Worlds=== |
|||
'''WIP''' |
|||
In the early 1970s, Mao Zedong put forward a thesis which analyzed the contradictions between imperialist powers and the semi-colonies of the world. He theorized that the first world, (in his case the US and the USSR) are imperial powers which compete for hegemony and fight over the division of the globe. The second world involves the imperial periphery (in his case Britain, Japan, France and others). The third world involves the colonies and semi-colonies of the world (in his case most of Africa and Asia). Many successive figures have put forward their strategies for handling the contradictions between the worlds, the most prominent of those being Deng Xiaoping. |
|||
===[[File:ChineseNewLeft.png]] Chinese New Left=== |
|||
'''WIP''' |
|||
==Personality== |
|||
Maoists often appear as Chinese high school or college students who are usually very active to tweet about praising workers and instilling MLM's works to others. They often deplore at capitalist and revisionist and they may usually carrying a MLM's book with a badge "serve the people" on his chest. |

"All loyal, honest, active and upright Communists must unite to oppose the liberal tendencies shown by certain people among us, and set them on the right path. This is one of the tasks on our ideological front."
Maoism or Mao Zedong Thought is a type of Marxism-Leninism associated with Mao Zedong, the chairman of the Communist Party of China. Maoism can be identified as
economically far-left,
totalitarian, and
culturally far-left It is important to note that
Maoism proper was formulated by
Chairman Gonzalo and the
Peruvian Communist Party. During the times of Chairman Mao, his thought was known as Mao Zedong Thought.
History
Formation
Maoism is a variant of Marxism-Leninism in China that was developed in the 1930s in the unrecognized state
‘China Soviet Republic’ as a major rebellion force against the
authoritarian nationalist government of Right KMT. At that time, Mao was known in the CPC for his focus on the rural ereas and objetion to the "orthodox" route of Lenninist revolution which emphasised wresting the control of cities . Instead, Mao believed in "rural ereas encircle the cities", and founded (at least played an important part in founding) the first rural revolutionary base in China- Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base.
Mao continued having conflicts with the "Bolsheviks" represented by Wang Ming, who loyally followed Stalin’s doctrine of advocacy of rapid industrialization in China. Mao developed his idea of peasantry-worker unity as vanguards of the communist revolution in China’s specific case, and argued that a strong alliance with the peasantry is a necessity in China for the revolution to succeed. During the Long March, Mao's brilliant generalship formed a sharp contrast with the failure of Chinese Central Red Army under his opponents, which won him a sable military status. However, it was not until the mid-40s that he exactly dominated the party.
During the Japanese invasion of China, Mao advocated for a United Front with the Nationalist faction, however within limits. He beated Wang Ming (who emphasised the United Front above the party's independence) and Zhang Guotao (who was later considered betraying the CPC and turning to the KMT)[18]. After eight years of fighting together, the United Front proved victorious over Japanese aggression. The most notable battle of that the communists fought in the war was the Hundred Regiment Offensive. The seventh national congress of the CCP in 1945 identified "Mao Zedong Thoughts" as the guiding ideology of the party, along with Marxism-Lennism.
Development
![](http://static.miraheze.org/polcompballwiki/thumb/b/bb/Redbook.jpg/300px-Redbook.jpg)
Immediately after the end of the Sino-Japanese War, the communists started seizing land and attacking the nationalist force[19]. The army size was expanded to 1.2 million (With 2.6 million militias) versus 2 million nationalist troops (With 2.3 million militias) with the supplies of Soviet weapons from the equipment Stalin seized in Manchuria. Due to Chiang’s poor military skills, the massive collapse or morales of the nationalist soldiers after eight years of war with Japan, hyperinflation in the nationalist-controlled regions, and the American interference in the Marshall Mission, Mao and the communists were able to seize the Mainland in 4 years time after major battles that defeated the incompetent and corrupt military of the nationalists and Chiang’s extremely unpopular government.
After the Communist force won the civil war, Mao declared that China entered a stage which was called the “New Democratic Revolution” by the newly established Chinese government. The CPC formed an alliance called the 'United Front' with parties such as the RCCK. Political dissents, Republic of China/KMT sympathizers, and landlords were purged in the subsequent political cleansings such as
Campaign to Suppress Counterrevolutionaries and the
Anti-Rightist Campaign. However, just as socialist construction began the Soviet Union would renounce
Joseph Stalin’s theory of Marxism-Leninism and allied Eastern European states that had developed exactly in line with it began to one by one fall to this new ideology. China, however, refused to follow
Khrushchev’s path and denounced him as a revisionist pseudo-socialist eventually, even though the PRC supported Khrushchev’s invasion of Hungary and pressed for it. Therefore, the Sino-Soviet Split split happened with Soviet projects scrapped, economic aid cut off, and scientists left China, which was detrimental to China’s economic development. At this point began a debate amongst the CPC arose over whether they had progressed the relations of production far enough in order to solely focus on economic development. Mao opposed this line, and instead believed that economic development could be obtained without sacrificing development in the relations of production. Agricultural policies such as collective farming and mass production were implemented, which was known as the ‘Great Leap Forward’ that failed to achieve its main objectives due to a complex variety of reasons and led to the Great Chinese Famine.
After the Sino-Soviet Split, the party began to formulate the idea that China develops an independent course of their economy. Mao wanted to utilize the resources they had gathered in the abundance of labor and popular enthusiasm. Water conservancy and irrigation eventually led to sustained growth in agricultural production. Flood defense was developed along with the practice of Terracing. The slogan “walking on two legs” was used to describe the pattern of industrial development. The development of small to medium size industry alongside the development of the emphasis on heavy industry. Compared to the more rigid and centralized economic system which had prevailed in the USSR, this period saw a different course of events with China adopting its unique form of the command economy. The rural industry established made use of labor-intensive strategies as opposed to plans entirely dependent on capital. As they served more local interests they did not require the development of nationwide infrastructure to prevail. Life expectancy (partially due to Mao’s pro-natalist policy) rose from 36 years in to 62 years and the literacy rate in China tripled to a record 60% from 20% in 1949 as the government introduced universal healthcare and education. Not only were smaller rural industries somewhat improved, but the heavy industry was accelerated as well with one example being the Teaching oil field. China also developed its own nuclear weapons with the help of engineers such as Qian Xuesen, becoming the fifth nuclear power on earth. Additionally, during the Mao era, the female labor participation rate was over 70%. After Mao died, it continued to decline. Despite these achievements, 88.1% of Chinese were still living in absolute poverty in 1980, with one of the lowest GDP per capita on earth.
However, Mao feared a threat looming over the country as he believed if capitalism could be restored in the Soviet Union, why couldn't it be restored in the People’s Republic of China? To many, it seemed a far-off and distant threat. However many people (such as Mao Zedong himself and the Gang of Four) believe they saw the beginning of the capitalist road among official party members. Mao believe that the reactionary ideology ran deep within China, as a result of years of hosting such relations of production. Land Reform annihilated the landlord class, but the conservative ideology was still prevalent in China, especially in rural regions. Mao feared that China was not travelling down the socialist path, and rather was on track to regress to capitalism. The
Great Proletariat Cultural Revolution happened in this context and the theory driving the event is simple: “The class struggle continues, and is even intensified under socialism”. The Cultural Revolution oversaw the destruction of many Chinese traditional cultural architectures and the prosecution of many intellectuals and teachers, and economic activities were halted in many regions. Many members that belonged to the so-called Five Black Categories and their family were also prosecuted in this era.
In the 1970s, as the relationship between China and the USSR further soured with the Chinese government isolated internationally, China began to look up to its old capitalist rivals. The USA also abandoned its hardline anti-communist doctrine in favor of pragmatism and realpolitik under
Richard Nixon and
Henry Kissinger to deter the common enemy - the USSR. Therefore, the Ping-pong diplomacy initiative under
Zhou Enlai eventually led to an improvement of the US-China relationship and the Sino-American rapprochement. A gradual establishment of diplomatic relationships happened between China and
western, NATO-aligned countries, and eventually, the United States in 1979, with these countries renouncing their recognization of
Taiwan under the Kuomintang. The implications of the events were enormous as China since then, despite being a communist country, had a much better relationship with the West and NATO than with the USSR and the Eastern Socialist Camp.
Hua Guofeng and the Two Whatevers
The new government of Hua Guofeng arrested the Gang of Four and imprisoned them for life and ended the Cultural Revolution. Hua emphasized economic development over popular movements, and proposed the “Two Whatevers”, reaffirming his loyalty to the principles of Mao Zedong Thought. Hua also visited
Yugoslavia and
Romania and improved the relationship between the PRC government with these countries, as well as tried to learn the modern industrial experiences from them. The relationship between China and western countries such as
FRG,
Japan, and the
U.S. improved as China took many loans from these countries. Hua subsequently launched the West Leap Forward project, which brought many technologies and allowed more foreign investment without changing the nature of the command economy with ambitious but often unobtainable economic targets. The West Leap Forward failed and led to criticisms within the party and the weakening of Hua’s position, allowing
Deng and his allies to attack Hua for “dogmatism,” which eventually toppled his leadership.
One of the reasons that Hua’s regime faltered quickly can be attributed to his lack of power legitimacy as Hua was not from the Red Army and PLA background and made no contributions to the CCP’s revolution. Hua also promoted Deng and other Mao era dissidents like Ye Jianying and Hu Yaobang, who wanted broad reforms of Mao’s ideals and his
command economy rather than just the end of the cultural revolution his leadership wanted. Hua’s regime also introduced small liberations of party control and more pluralism, which allowed Deng’s allies to emerge and seize power from his “Little Gang of Four” clique.
Modern Day
In Modern China, the rising social and economic inequality as well as the return of the capitalist class with red paint and exploitation of workers has caused a wave of resurgence of Maoist support such as the banned Maoist Communist Party of China. However, none of these movements are formidable and are usually crushed by the
Modern CPC with an iron fist.
Overseas
Japan
The Maoist movement in Japan began in 1969 following a split in the New Left Communist League, where political leaders such as Fusako Shigenobu, Tsuneo Mori and Takaya Shiomi split from the group due to their occult-like anti-Japaneseism tendencies. They began their political movement without gaining initial support, only giving them a top member count of 400. Due to this, the group was quickly dispersed by the late 70s. The Japanese United Red Army was considered by many Maoist groups as some form of cautionary tale for their members, as they had committed to robberies, civilian-targeted terrorist attacks and kidnapping for extortion incidents. They are famous in Japan for holding a stowaway lodge hostage and turning it into a military centre, and for robberies across multiple banks in Japan. Their members also were sent to Beirut to fight for the Lebanese Communist Party and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. The group later dissolved in the early 80s, where their leader advocated for peaceful means of Communism for Japan.
Additions to
Marxism-Leninism
Maoism can be seen as both a continuation and split from classical Marxism-Leninism. Mao, throughout his Marxist revolution in China, formulated 5 new primary additions to
Marxism-Leninism, being the Mass Line, Protracted People's War, New Democracy, the theory of Cultural Revolution and the theory of the Three Delineated Worlds.
Mass Line
The Mass Line is a theory that states that the Masses of Peasants and Workers must be in unison ideologically with the Communist Party. Therefore, Communist Party members must go unto the masses and consult their needs and gather information, which will be further relayed to the party. The party then interprets this information within a Socialist framework and applies this in a cultural or economic change.
Protracted People's War
Protracted People’s War, often abbreviated as PPW is what Maoists view as the proletarian’s military strategy. Protracted People’s War combines insurgency with guerrilla warfare, offensives by the People’s Army, concentrated under the leadership of the Communist party, It is a misunderstanding to believe that this form war is simply a peasant strategy used in semi-feudal and semi-colonial backwaters. The People’s War uses three revolutionary instruments. The United Front, the People’s Army, and the Party itself. The United Front allows for agitation in areas where the party has yet to establish base areas. The People’s Army is the method of keeping politics in command of the gun, the Party having an armed wing. The “Party” is self-explanatory. Protracted People’s War also emphasizes the protracted nature of revolutions, hence the name.
New Democracy
The New Democratic society is a transitional form between the New Democratic Revolution and the
Socialist Revolution. Different from the Socialist Society, the New Democracy's Fundamental task is not to overthrow
Capitalist Society, but overthrow
Imperialist Society and
Feudalist Society. It's also different from Capitalist Society because its leadership is the proletariat. Its goal is "establish a Democratic Republic under the joint dictatorship of all anti-imperialist and anti-feudal people under the leadership of the proletariat."
Cultural Revolution
The theory of Cultural Revolution, originating in the People’s Republic of China shortly after the breaking of relations with the Soviet Union is one which states that the conclusion of the initial proletariat revolution and the dawn of proletariat dictatorship does not wipe out bourgeois ideology. On the contrary, it asserts that the class struggle is intensified during socialist transition and a near-continuous struggle against such ideology and its social roots. The target of cultural revolution is often aspects of the superstructure, often encompassing various existing markers of a capitalist or even a dynasty past.
Three Delineated Worlds
In the early 1970s, Mao Zedong put forward a thesis which analyzed the contradictions between imperialist powers and the semi-colonies of the world. He theorized that the first world, (in his case the US and the USSR) are imperial powers which compete for hegemony and fight over the division of the globe. The second world involves the imperial periphery (in his case Britain, Japan, France and others). The third world involves the colonies and semi-colonies of the world (in his case most of Africa and Asia). Many successive figures have put forward their strategies for handling the contradictions between the worlds, the most prominent of those being Deng Xiaoping.
Personality
Maoists often appear as Chinese high school or college students who are usually very active to tweet about praising workers and instilling MLM's works to others. They often deplore at capitalist and revisionist and they may usually carrying a MLM's book with a badge "serve the people" on his chest.
How to Draw
The design for Maoism is based on Mao Zedong's proposed flag for the People's Republic of China without the yellow stripe symbolizing the Yellow River.
- Draw a ball.
- Fill it with red.
- Draw a yellow star on the top left.
- Add the Asian eyes and you're done!
