Revisionism refers to the introduction of bourgeois and anti-Marxist ideas into the revolutionary movement and corruption of its principles in favor of capitalist, chauvinist, reformist, and other opportunist ideas. Examples of past and present revisionist trends include Kautskyism, Browderism, left-communism, Khrushchevism, Maoism, and Dengism. Marxist–Leninist opposition to revisionism is known as anti-revisionism.
