Maoist Revision?

I have noticed one particular trend that Maoism introduced. It was that of Nationalist "communism" (if you would call it that) rather than the internationalist brand suggested by Karl Marx himself.

I have not had time to research it more in depth because I've been swamped with other research issues.

I would be interested to find out if it was ultimately a brand of National Socialist for China.

Those who would point out what modern China is doing neglect to acknowledge that modern China has drifted from Mao's ideas quite a bit.

It would be very interesting if someone could either confirm or disprove my suspicions. Many other "communist" nations that I have examined turned out to be much more Nationalist than communism could ever be.

I will cover these in a later article.
