Chinese Communism and its Future.

The Chinese revolution came in the year 1949; it refers to the final stage of military conflict. When the armies of Mao Test Tung and of General Chu crossed the Yangtse River in April 1949, the seal of defeat was almost set on the forces of Chiang Kai Shek. According to the bourgeois revolution, their beliefs would be followed by the proletarian socialist revolution. (Gao, Mobo 2008).

The revolution of how China differs from its counterpart is that in both countries (Russia and China) were backward at the beginning of this century. Their relations of production and their patterns of exploitation were semi-feudal (or related to feudalism) and were predominantly founded on agriculture. Both societies had Religious beliefs, reflecting the social conditions: in China Confucianism, and in Russia Greek Orthodoxy. However they had different traditions, culture practices and language. Both Russia and China had different forms of law and leaders; however both countries revolutions had to prepare a basis for industrial development. They had to destroy absolutism and replace it by a form of government and by a state machine that would allow solutions to the existing economic problem facing them.

There were enormous differences between the bourgeois revolutions in China and Russia, on one hand, and that in France on the other. And it is precisely in those areas where the Russian and Chinese revolutions of this century differ from the French revolution that they resemble one another.

In both countries (Russia and China) the revolutions had to solve the same political and economic tasks. They had to work hard to destroy feudalism and to free the productive forces in agriculture from the fetters in which existing relations bound them but both countries differ in terms of population. China had a low population. Thus manpower differs as many had die during the reign of Moa.

The two founder of great socialist Republic are mainly Mao and Lenin both of these Republics have been founded in this century as result of the mass movements and the resulting revolutions but with different in terms of leadership as in Moa a lot of people died during his reign.

Lenin was not the first to describe socialism as a transitional society, but he turned out to be the most influential. In Lenin's Political Thought, Neil Harding claims that in 1917 Lenin made "no clear delineation" between socialism and communism. But Lenin did write in State and Revolution (1917) of a "scientific distinction" between socialism and communism: This has contributed to success of china as the communists to victory against the nationalists in 1949 which kind of dictated the way China has been run ever since. But it was due to Moa that tens of millions of people died as a result of the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution. This affected the country in terms of man power as a lot of people were needed in the fields for cultivation. (Harding, Neil (ed.) 1984)
