On Practice and Contradiction - Paperback
by Mao Tse-Tung (Author), Slavoj Zizek (Introduction by)
These early philosophical writings underpinned the Chinese revolutions, and their clarion calls to insurrection remain some of the most stirring of all time. Drawing on a dizzying array of references from contemporary culture and politics, iek's firecracker commentary reaches unsettling conclusions about the place of Mao's thought in the revolutionary canon.
Mao Tse-Tung was a Chinese revolutionary, political theorist and Communist leader. He led the People's Republic of China (PRC) from its establishment in 1949 until his death in 1976.
