shape and power relations of the crisis-ridden world imperialist system, and the emergence of heightened contradictions which foreshadow major qualitative leaps in its inter-imperialist relations and its vulnerability to new mass revolutionary challenges, is explored in this new study.  Focused principally on the growing and contentious role played by China in the world system, this new study,  “Is China an Imperialist Country? – Considerations and Evidence”, was produced by  NB Turner and an independent research and writing group.  Originally published by <a href="http://www.red-Path.net/">Red-Path.net</a> (an internationalist website devoted to study and debate of critical issues facing the international communist movement), it has been submitted to MLMRSG, which has now adopted it as it expresses our views as well.  We encourage its study and broad distribution.

heightened contradictions which foreshadow major qualitative leaps in its inter-imperialist relations and its vulnerability to new mass revolutionary challenges, is explored in this new study.  Focused principally on the growing and contentious role played by China in the world system, this new study,  “Is China an Imperialist Country? – Considerations and Evidence”, was produced by  NB Turner and an independent research and writing group.  Originally published by <a href="http://www.red-Path.net/">Red-Path.net</a> (an internationalist website devoted to study and debate of critical issues facing the international communist movement), it has been submitted to MLMRSG, which has now adopted it as it expresses our views as well.  We encourage its study and broad distribution.

This paper examines how socialist China handled this tension during four periods between 1949 and 1976. It contrasts the strong internationalist support given to the Korean people and to the Vietnamese and other struggles for national liberation in the 1960s, with the development of bourgeois nationalist lines around the 1955 Bandung Conference and the reactionary "three worlds theory" of the early 1970s.

This paper examines how socialist China handled this tension during four periods between 1949 and 1976. It contrasts the strong internationalist support given to the Korean people and to the Vietnamese and other struggles for national liberation in the 1960s, with the development of bourgeois nationalist lines around the 1955 Bandung Conference and the reactionary "three worlds theory" of the early 1970s. This paper also takes on the view that nationalist governments and their leaders, not revolutionary people's movements, are the most important challenge to imperialism in the world today.  <strong><em>(40 pages, January 2007)</em></strong></p></div> MLM Revolutionary Study Group Speech on the Cultural Revolution 2013-03-08T15:23:44+00:00 2013-03-08T15:23:44+00:00 https://authsmtp.mlmrsg.com/79-statements/73-mlm-revolutionary-study-group-speech-on-the-cultural-revolution Super User [email protected] <div class="feed-description"><p>Abbreviated version of "Evaluating the Cultural Revolution and its Legacy for the Future," presented at the forum on the Great Proletarian Revolution and Lessons for the Working Class Movement on April 1, 2007 in The Hague,  Netherlands.
