SUMMARY:The Chinese Revolution: 1930-1949
DESCRIPTION:An 11-Week session with The Revolutions Study Group \nOf 20th-century revolutions\, the upheaval in China that culminated in the declaration in 1949 of the People’s Republic was arguably just as significant as the Russian Revolution of 1917. We begin with the Chinese Revolution in 1930\, after the nationalist party led by Chiang Kai Shek turned on the mass movement\, slaughtered militant workers and peasants\, and declared war on Communists. The Communist Party regrouped in remote rural areas and reoriented its activity from urban industrial working class to organizing a peasant rebellion from these rural bases. This led to a prolonged civil war\, interrupted by a Japanese invasion\, which in turn became part of World War Two. After the war\, the struggle between the armies of Chiang Kai Shek and the Communists resumed\, ending with Chiang’s fleeing to Taiwan and the final victory of the Communist army in 1949. The primary reading will be Mark Selden: China in Revolution: The Yenan Way Revisited. Check marxedproject.org for updates to the reading list. \nTHE REVOLUTIONS STUDY GROUP (originally at the Brecht Forum) has been meeting since 2009. Individual participants have come and gone\, however the group has held together\, studying in depth a wide range of history including the French Revolution\, the Russian Revolutions of 1905 and 1917\, the Mau-Mau Revolt in Kenya\, the Haitian Revolution\, the European Revolutions of 1848\, the May movement in France of 1968 and the Hot Autumn of Italy the following year\, the Spanish Civil War\, the Mexican Revolution\, the Socialist (2nd) International\, and Russian Social Democracy prior to World War I.

SUMMARY:Revolution in China: 1911-1949
DESCRIPTION:The Revolutions Study Group\n10 weeks \nOf 20th-century revolutions\, the upheaval in China that culminated in the declaration in 1949 of the People’s Republic was arguably just as significant as the Russian Revolution of 1917. Beginning this January\, the Revolutions Reading Group undertakes an in-depth study of that 40-year struggle\, from the overthrow of the monarchy in 1911 to the victory of the Communist Party after World War II. Readings to include Lucien Bianco\, Origins of the Chinese Revolution\, Harold Isaacs\, Tragedy of the Chinese Revolution\, and Edgar Snow\, Red Star over China. \n“On the fringes of big Chinese cities the shadows of lofty factory chimneys fall across fields still tilled with wooden ploughs. On the wharves of seaports modern liners unload goods carried away on the backs of men or shipped inland on primitive barges. In the streets great trucks and jangling trams roar past carts drawn by men harnessed like animals to their loads.

SUMMARY:Revolution in China: 1911-1949
DESCRIPTION:The Revolutions Study Group\n10 weeks \nOf 20th-century revolutions\, the upheaval in China that culminated in the declaration in 1949 of the People’s Republic was arguably just as significant as the Russian Revolution of 1917. Beginning this January\, the Revolutions Reading Group undertakes an in-depth study of that 40-year struggle\, from the overthrow of the monarchy in 1911 to the victory of the Communist Party after World War II. Readings to include Lucien Bianco\, Origins of the Chinese Revolution\, Harold Isaacs\, Tragedy of the Chinese Revolution\, and Edgar Snow\, Red Star over China. \n“On the fringes of big Chinese cities the shadows of lofty factory chimneys fall across fields still tilled with wooden ploughs.
