Is too often believed that Chinese Communism, because it is more open & critical than Soviet Communism, can play a determining role in the liberalizing of the oriental world. In support of this thesis the contrast is made between the developments of the 2 Communisms. These optimistic views are not devoid of oversimplification. In effect, the evolution of the Chinese Communist Party since 1920 shows that the allegiance to Stalin was never rejected, & the position taken after the 20th Congress does nothing to indicate the contrary. The reasons for such loyalty are numerous: it is a personal ideal of Mao Tse-tung (as esp demonstrated in his Regarding Contradiction), it fits in with the strongly antiliberal tradition of Confucianism, & finally, the objective conditions of the Chinese economy in its march toward socialism reinforce it. These facts constitute the logical premises of a dictatorship of the Stalinist variety & seriously limit any chances of the liberalization of the regime. Tr by J. A. Broussard from IPSA.
