Poster from the time of the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution.The Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution (GPCR) was a cultural revolution launched by Mao Zedong and the Communist Party of China in May 1966. It was a historic movement that reinvigorated the socialist revolution in China, empowering the masses to combat revisionism, capitalist influences, and bureaucratic elitism. Continuing until Mao’s death in September 1976, the GPCR aimed to ensure that China remained on the path to socialism by mobilizing workers, peasants, and youth to challenge counter-revolutionary elements within the Party and society. It sought to create a new socialist culture by breaking with feudal traditions, capitalist ideologies, and cultural legacies rooted in China’s past, while fostering mass participation in the revolutionary process.
The example of the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution led to the development of the corresponding theory in the modern ideology of Marxism–Leninism–Maoism.
Socialism: Utopian and Scientific is a short work first published in 1880 by Friedrich Engels. The work was intended as a way to make the ideas of Anti-Dühring, a longer polemic work published in 1876, more accessible, and is largely extracted from three chapters of such. It first appeared in French. The book goes over the development of pre-Marxist socialist thought, followed by dialectics, and concludes with historical materialism, which is considered to be the application of Marxist dialectical materialism to the evolution of human society.
"It is difficult for me to imagine what 'personal liberty' is enjoyed by an unemployed person, who goes about hungry and cannot find employment. Real liberty can exist only where exploitation has been abolished, where there is no oppression of some by others, where there is no unemployment and poverty, where a man is not haunted by the fear of being tomorrow deprived of work, of home and of bread."
—Joseph Stalin, Interview Between J. Stalin and Roy Howard (1936)
