COMPROMISE HAS LED TO A COMMON GROUND BETWEEN THE FAMILY AND THE STATE: LOVE FOR THE FATHERLAND, TOLERANCE OF TRADITIONAL CULTURAL STYLES, AND LEGITIMIZATION OF OLD RACIAL AND NATIONAL PREJUDICES. THUS THE FAMILY IN COMMUNIST COUNTRIES HAS NOT PRESERVED OLD CULTURAL VALUES BUT HAS ADJUSTED TO NEW DEMANDS OF ADMINISTRATIVE SURVIVAL AND ECONOMIC AND TECHNICAL PROGRESS.
The primary method of supporting the national independence & liberation movements in Asia, Africa & Latin America envisaged by Mao Tse-Tung, is through the example of his own victory in China. Resting on a multi-class basis & armed with nationalist appeal, the concept of a new democracy may appeal to the traditionally anti-Communist classes as well as to all who are willing to collaborate for various considerations. The inclusion of the bourgeoisie in such a multi-class alliance is a very important point in Mao's scheme, while the appeal to the peasantry is based on a promise of agrarian reform & that to the workers on the vision of increased soc, econ & pol'al status. Objective conditions prevailing in countries on the verge of modern industrial culture leave them susceptible to a Communist offensive regardless of the present numerical strength of the Communist parties, & because of similarities between China & these countries, Maoism can be a serviceable model of action for communists & anti- gradualists to follow.
