New Democracy is a revolutionary and democratic form of government which differs both from the bourgeois and proletarian dictatorship in that it represents a joint-dictatorship of anti-feudal strata (i.e. the proletariat, peasantry, petite bourgeoisie, and elements of the national bourgeoisie) under the hegemony of the proletariat. The concept of New Democracy was originally formulated by Mao Zedong in the context of the Chinese revolution.

A New Democratic revolution completes the tasks of a bourgeois revolution and is required for communist movements to overcome bureaucrat-comprador capitalism in semi-colonial and semi-feudal countries.
