Description

Explore the early political foundations of one of history's most significant figures with this Routledge Revival edition. While Mao Zedong is often associated primarily with peasant revolution, this study reveals his origins as a Communist organizer focused on urban labor. This book provides a detailed look at Mao's background and his direct influence during the early stages of the labor movement. By examining significant worker strikes and the political climate of the 1920-23 period, the text offers a unique perspective on how his career began through orthodox Communist organizing. Authored by Lynda N. Shaffer, this work is an essential resource for students and historians interested in the history of labor movements and the development of Chinese political leadership. It serves as a scholarly deep dive into the specific social and economic conditions of Hunan Province during a transformative era.
