What is China since Mao about?
There has been a veritable leap backward." With these words Charles Bettelheim, former chairman of the Franco-Chinese Friendship Association and Director of Studies at the Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes, sums up his analysis of the program and actions of the present leaders of the Chinese Communist Party. His analysis of the events in China since the death of Mao Tse-tung in September 1976 leads him to conclude that the present leadership, having proclaimed the end of the Cultural Revolution, has set China on the revisionist road. Bettelheim's article is in response to a letter, also included in this volume, from Neil G. Burton to the editors of Monthly Review. Burton, a Canadian living and working in China, defends the policies of the Chinese Communist Party leaders as producing the essential conditions under which the masses can continue to educate and liberate themselves. Thus the issue is joined, in what undoubtedly will be a continuing discussion of the course of the Chinese revolution.
