This book shows how Maoism was globalized during the 1949-1976
period, highlighting the agency of both Latin American and Chinese
actors. While Maoism has long been known to have been influential
in many social movements and guerrilla groups in Latin America,
author Matthew Rothwell is the first to establish the way in which
Latin American communists domesticated Maoism to Latin American
conditions and turned Maoism into an influential political trend in
many countries. By utilizing case studies of the formation of
Maoist guerrilla groups and political parties in Mexico, Peru and
Bolivia, the book shows how the movement of Chinese communist ideas
to Latin America was the product of a highly organized effort that
involved formal connections between Latin American activists and
the People's Republic of China. It represents a major contribution
to three developing fields of historical inquiry: Latin America in
the Cold War, the global 1960s, and Chinese Maoist foreign
relations.
