Mao Tsé-Tung - Da Prática e da Contradição

An anthology of doctrinal texts on "revolution," these revolutionary writings by Mao Zedong, written in an early phase of his political-philosophical thought, formed a large part of the theoretical basis of the Chinese revolution, and their vehement calls for insurrection rightfully place them within the canon of revolutionary texts.

In his introduction, Slavoj Žižek, who, as usual, draws on a wide range of cultural and political references, presents some unexpected, and, why not say, provocative conclusions regarding Mao Zedong's place among great revolutionary figures.
