Talk:Social-imperialism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Obviously A Stub

Ok, there is more to social imperialism that just soviet Russia. For example, the Germans used social imperialism before World War 1. This article needs to be redone, or severly added upon.

Social-Imperialism isn't a term Mao invented, it's actually related to the Social fascism position of the Comintern which was run by Stalin and co. Furthermore it should be recognize that Enver Hoxha (who was anti-Soviet and anti-Maoist) denounced Mao's aggressive foreign policy (which was itself aimed against the USSR) as social-imperialist, Hoxha basically said Mao was 'fighting soviet social-imperialist by using his own style of social-imperialism'. That would relate to Chinese support of UNITA in Angola, the Afghan guerrillas in Afghanistan against the Soviets etc, Mao's foreign policy was continued and enhanced after his death with the Sino-Vietnamese War etc.

So yeah, my point being, social-imperialism is not a Maoist term but a pretty objective Communist one.
