The Emergence of Global Maoism
2022
Overview
The Emergence of Global Maoism
examines the spread of Mao Zedong's writings, ideology, and
institutions when they traveled outside of China. Matthew
Galway links Chinese Communist Party efforts to globalize Maoism to
the dialectical engagement of exported Maoism by Cambodian Maoist
intellectuals.
How do ideas manifest outside of their place of origin? Galway
analyzes how universal ideological systems became localized, both
in Mao's indigenization of Marxism-Leninism and in the Communist
Party of Kampuchea's indigenization of Maoism into its own
revolutionary ideology. By examining the intellectual journeys of
CPK leaders who, during their studies in Paris in the 1950s, became
progressive activist-intellectuals and full-fledged Communists, he
shows that they responded to political and socioeconomic crises by
speaking back to Maoism-adapting it through practice, without
abandoning its universality. Among Mao's greatest achievements, the
Sinification of Marxism enabled the CCP to canonize Mao's thought
and export it to a progressive audience of international
intellectuals. These intellectuals would come to embrace the
ideology as they set a course for social change.
The Emergence of Global Maoism illuminates the process
through which China moved its goal from class revolution to a
larger anticolonial project that sought to cast out European and
American imperialism from Asia.
