History of China
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The recorded history of China began in the 15th century BC when the Shang Dynasty started to use markings that evolved into the present Chinese characters. Turtle shells with markings reminiscent of ancient Chinese writing from the Shang Dynasty have been carbon dated to as early as 1500 BC.[1] Chinese civilization originated with city-states in the Yellow River (Huang He) valley. 221 BC is commonly accepted to be the year in which China became unified under a large kingdom or empire. In that year, Qin Shi Huang first united China. Successive dynasties in Chinese history developed bureaucratic systems that enabled the Emperor of China to control increasingly larger territory that reached maximum under the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty and Manchurian Qing Dynasty.
The conventional view of Chinese history is that of a country alternating between periods of political unity and disunity and occasionally becoming dominated by foreign peoples, most of whom were assimilated into the Han Chinese population. Cultural and political influences from many parts of Asia, carried by successive waves of immigration, expansion, and assimilation, merged to create the Chinese culture.

Maoism
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Maoism, variably and officially known as Mao Zedong Thought (traditional Chinese: ?????; simplified Chinese: ?????; pinyin: Máo Zédong Sixiang), is a variant of Marxism derived from the teachings of the late Chinese leader Mao Zedong (Wade-Giles Romanization: "Mao Tse-tung"), widely applied as the political and military guiding ideology in the Communist Party of China (CPC) from Mao's ascendancy to its leadership until the inception of Deng Xiaoping Theory and Chinese economic reforms in 1978. It is also applied internationally in contemporary times. Maoist organizations exist in Peru, India, and most prominently, Nepal. Its basic tenets include a revolutionary struggle of the vast majority of people termed a People's War involving peasants, and its military strategies essentially involved guerrilla war tactics focused on surrounding the cities from the countryside with a non-professional, popular armed forces.
In its post-revolutionary period, Mao Zedong Thought is defined in the CPC's Constitution as "Marxism-Leninism applied in a Chinese context", synthesized by Mao Zedong and China's first-generation leaders. It provided the CPC's first comprehensive theoretical guideline with regards to how to continue socialist revolution, the creation of a socialist society, socialist military construction, and highlights various contradictions in society to be addressed by what is termed "socialist construction"
Maoism generally discredits the socialist framework of the Soviet Union under Nikita Khrushchev and dismisses it as Communist revisionism. Some critics claim that Maoists see Joseph Stalin as the last true socialist leader of the Soviet Union, although allowing the Maoist assessments of Stalin vary between the extremely positive and the more ambivalent.[

Mao Zedong pronunciation (help·info) (Simplified Chinese: ???; Traditional Chinese: ???; Pinyin: Máo Zédong; Wade-Giles: Mao Tse-tung); December 26, 1893–September 9, 1976 was a Chinese military and political leader who led the Communist Party of China (CPC) to victory against the Kuomintang (KMT) in the Chinese Civil War, and was the leader of the People's Republic of China (PRC) from its establishment in 1949 until his death in 1976.
Regarded as one of the most important figures in modern world history,[1] and named by Time Magazine as one of the 100 most influential people of the 20th century,[2] Mao is still a controversial figure today, over thirty years after his death. He is generally held in high regard in China where he is often portrayed as a great revolutionary and strategist who eventually defeated Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek in the Chinese Civil War, and transformed the country into a major power through his policies. However, many of Mao's socio-political programs such as the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution are blamed by critics from both within and outside China for causing severe damage to the culture, society, economy and foreign relations of China, as well as the deaths of 44.5 to 72 million people.[3] The majority of these deaths were result of famine, and his direct involvement remains controversial[
Although still officially venerated in China, his influence has been largely overshadowed by the political and economic reforms of Deng Xiaoping and other leaders since his death.[4][5] Mao is also recognized as a poet and calligrapher.
China`s official name is People`s Republic of China.
The Chinese Parliament is the People`s parliament.
The Chinese army is called People`s liberation Army.
The Newspaper is named as People`s daily.
China has successfully sent a message to the rest of the world that the Beijing Olympics happens to be an affair of the People from the word Go! And it is contrary to worldwide media speculations!
Beijing Olympics has sent the message to the Resistance Worldwide that the Corporate US Imperialism and Post Modern Galaxy Manusmriti Apartheid Hindu Zionist White world order are not the final words predestined!
I dare to pronounce my friends that this event is going to be proved an effective Act of Anti Imperialism Movement worldwide.
They declared, ` History is dead!'
Has China disassociated from its roots? It`s History? It`s legacy? It`s tradition? It`s Philosophy?
They have concluded,`Ideology is dead!'
Is it?
China is no more a Forbidden land , true!
China has signed the Nuke Deal, true!
True is the Tibetan Insurrection!
It is also true that China has opted for Open Market and it has made it`s way in globalisation ways?
Economic Times reports from BEIJING: Activists wrapped themselves in Tibetan flags on Saturday and lay down in Tiananmen Square in a protest that was angrily rejected by Chinese onlookers who followed the group and shouted ``Get out!"
It is also true!
We may not deny the objective realism of Tiananmen Square and the Massacre associated!
We know the history of cultural revolution.
They claim that China has opted for Capitalism!
Is it?
China has not departed from Socialism, Beijing Olympics has expressed it very well with perfect Ten exposure of Human Resources full of people`s Power and almost secure disciplined Nationalism! Technology is there but Human Formation s was the last word in the Opening ceremony!
Long Live Mao! Long live Maoism!
Is not the message after all?
They declared , ` Genre is dead! Culture is dead! Literature is dead'!
They could say so after the demise of USSR! Was USSR intact before disintegration! Did it represent the World communist Movement and the inherent Internationalism? Did USSR continue the burning questions of Nationality?
What was cold war, then?
Was not it a Blind Arm Race? A dogfight for dominance in the sky? What accommodated the Star wars?
Did USSR respect its Human Resources as China does? I am asserting these words and I am aware of the SEZ drive in China. i am aware of the Peasants` Insurrections in China! I am also aware of the growth of Capitalism in china. But the fact remains, China tried its best to streamline it`s indigenous production system and economy what was never done in USSR.
What about the socialist Imperialism represented by USSR to encounter USA? What has been the result? What about the role of USSR in Middle East? In Palestine? In Iran? In Iraq? And finally in Afghanistan?
What has been the role of USSR in East Europe? In South Asia?
In third world countries? Was not USSR converted the nation into a War Economy as USA has done? If the War economy has disintegrated USSR, would it spare the United State of America?
I am afraid that the foreign ministries in Third world countries, the leaders and policy makers and our most revered Post Modern Intelligentsia have not cared enough to address these Unpleasnt questions and linked Socialism to the failure of USSR! They never dared to link the demise of USSR to the fall of Nazis, decay of British empire and future of USA!
China has never tried to emerge as a Super Power! It never aspired to have alliance with Zionist White imperialism and the Global ruling Class. It is opposed to apartheid!China is not sick with inherent inequality and injustice as we Indian are! Rather China has the spices of India Origin Buddhism with Confucius! We have lost our legacy and history as well as our traditional geopolitics!
China strives for Job opportunities in Mother language and we rape our Mother languages!
China has not bartered away its Natural resources! While we have sold our natural resources and MNCs rule India! We have poisoned our water resources! We have deforested our Himalayas! We have crushed nationalities and Identities! We have launched Indiscriminate industrialisation and urbanisation drive to annihilate indigenous communities!

AFP Reports fromLONDON:
The press was united Saturday in declaring the spectacular Beijing Olympics opening ceremony the best ever and a stunning display of China's new-found confidence.
Yet most front pages reflected that as the Olympics opened to scenes of fireworks and brilliantly choreographed dancers in the Chinese capital, conflict broke out in Georgia's breakaway South Ossetia region.
"08.08.08 -- day of war and peace" was the front page headline of The Guardian.
"The ceremony that opened the 29th Olympic Games last night outdid all of its predecessors in numbers, colour, noise and expense, demonstrating to the world that the new China intends to make its presence felt," said the accompanying article.
The Daily Telegraph headlined its front page: "Beijing wows the world... Moscow sends in the tanks".
A second headline, "China marches on to world stage", topped a photograph of hundreds of Chinese dancers wearing feather headdresses to represent the age of Confucius at the opening ceremony.
The paper said China had flexed its muscles to the world leaders in the stadium and to a television audience of billions.
It wrote: "One Olympic ideal -- the separation of sport and politics -- died in the Chinese night.
"This was the choreographed demonstration of might the like of which the Olympics has never seen; a rebuke to George W. Bush and Nicolas Sarkozy, vocal critics of Chinese foreign and domestic policy sitting in the audience."
The tabloid Daily Mail's front page also contrasted the fireworks in Beijing with a photograph of a blazing Georgian tank, but splashed colour photographs of the opening ceremony over six inside pages.
The paper said: "The age of Chinese power dawned in a spellbinding and futuristic curtain-lifter which featured 15,000 different types of costume and 14,000 performers, 9,000 of them on loan from the People's Liberation Army.
It continued: "To say these Games would be a landmark in world politics was no idle claim. Last night proved it."

Not to be confused with Republic of China, commonly known as Taiwan.
The People's Republic of China (simplified Chinese: ???????; traditional Chinese: ???????; pinyin: Zhonghuá Rénmín Gònghéguó listen (help·info)), commonly known as China, is the largest country in East Asia with Beijing as its capital city. It is a single-party socialist republic comprising of twenty-two provinces, five autonomous regions, four municipalities, and two Special Administrative Regions.
The country is vast, stretching for 5,000 km across the East Asian landmass, and has a diverse landscape. In the north, near China's borders with Mongolia and Russia's Siberia, the Gobi Desert and forest steppes dominate the dry expanse while lush subtropical forests grow along its southern borders with Vietnam, Laos, and Myanmar. The terrain in the west is rugged and high altitude with the Himalayas and the Tian Shan mountain ranges forming China's natural borders with India and Central Asia. In contrast, China's eastern seaboard is low-lying and has a 14,500-km long coastline bounded on the southeast by the South China Sea and on the east by the East China Sea beyond which lies Korea and Japan. At 9.6 million km2 and with more than 1.3 billion people (a fifth of humanity), the People's Republic of China (PRC) is the third or fourth largest country by area and the most populous in the world.[4]
The fertile region along the Yellow River that flows through the North China Plain is home to the ancient Chinese civilization - one of the world's earliest. For the past 4000 years, China was ruled by hereditary monarchs or dynasties beginning with the Xia until the Qing that finally ended in 1911. The first half of the 20th century saw China plunged into a period of disunity and civil wars that divided the country into two main political camps - the Nationalist Kuomintang (KMT) and the Communist Party of China (CPC). The war ended in 1949 with the establishment of the People's Republic in mainland China by the victorious Communists while the retreating Nationalists set up the Republic of China (ROC) on Taiwan. As of 2008, the PRC is still involved in a dispute with the ROC over issues of sovereignty and the political status of Taiwan.
Foreign relations

Hu Jintao with US President George W. Bush.The People's Republic of China maintains diplomatic relations with most major countries in the world. Sweden was the first western country to establish diplomatic relations with the People's Republic on the ninth of May 1950.[29] In 1971, the PRC replaced the Republic of China as the sole representative of China in the United Nations and as one of the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council.[30] It is considered a founding member of the UN, though the PRC was not in control of China at the time. The PRC was also a former member and leader of the Non-Aligned Movement.
Population policy
Main article: One-child policy
Population of China from 1961-2003With a population of over 1.3 billion, the PRC is very concerned about its population growth and has attempted, with mixed results,[34] to implement a strict family planning policy. The government's goal is one child per family, with exceptions for ethnic minorities and flexibility in rural areas, where a family can have a second child if the first is a girl or physically disabled. The government's goal is to stabilize population growth early in the twenty-first century, though some projections estimate a population of anywhere ranging from 1.4 billion to 1.6 billion by 2025. Hence the country's family planning minister has indicated that China will maintain its one-child policy until at least the year 2018.[35]

The Constitution of the People's Republic of China states that the "fundamental rights" of citizens include freedom of speech, freedom of the press, the right to a fair trial, freedom of religion, universal suffrage, and property rights. However, these provisions do not afford significant protection against criminal prosecution by the State.
