Mao Zedong's Little Red Book (Quotations from Chairman Mao) - a
compilation of the Chinese leader's speeches and writings - is one
of the most visible and ubiquitous symbols of twentieth-century
radicalism. Published for the first time in 1964, it rapidly became
the must-have accessory for Red Guards and revolutionaries from
Berkeley to Bamako. Yet, despite its worldwide circulation and
enduring presence there has, until now, been no serious scholarly
effort to understand this seminal text as a global historical
phenomenon. Mao's Little Red Book brings together a range of
innovative scholars from around the world to explore the
fascinating variety of uses and forms that Mao's Quotations has
taken, from rhetoric, art and song, to talisman, badge, and weapon.
The authors of this pioneering volume use Mao's Quotations as a
medium through which to re-examine the history of the
twentieth-century world, challenging established ideas about the
book to reveal its remarkable global impact.
