WINNER OF THE 2019 CUNDILL HISTORY PRIZE
SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2019 BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE
'A landmark work that offers a global view of Mao's ideology, filled with historical events and vivid characters' - Jonathan Fenby, author of The Penguin History of Modern China.
'Magnificent' - Andrew Marr, New Statesman.
Since the 1980s, China seems to have abandoned the utopian fervor of Mao's revolution in favor of authoritarian capitalism. However, Mao and his ideas remain central to the Chinese Republic. As tensions between China and the West increase, the need to understand Mao's political legacy is urgent and growing.
A critical engine of the Cold War: Maoism shaped the course of the Vietnam War and brought the Khmer Rouge to power in Cambodia. It supported anti-colonial movements in Africa, inspired terrorism in Germany and Italy, as well as wars and insurgencies in countries like Peru, India, and Nepal, some of which remain with us today.
Beginning with the birth of Mao's revolution in northwestern China in the 1930s and ending with its violent aftermath in Southeast Asia and its resurgence in China today, Julia Lovell reassesses Maoism as a Chinese and international force, linking its evolution in China to its global legacy.
