[Marxism] Literature on Western Maoism

I'm looking for recommendations for literature on the growth of Maoism in the West, especially in the 1960s and 1970s. In particular, any material giving some idea of how much information on life in Mao's China was known in the West during this period would be of great interest. Not just

Re: [Marxism] Literature on Western Maoism

Thanks for all suggestions so far. The context for this is a projected paper/article (just in the planning/abstract stage at the moment) looking at various composers explicitly engaging with Maoist ideas in their work, primarily Cornelius Cardew. But I'm interested in anything on the reception

Re: [Marxism] Who is interested in Mao ?

Also, this book has been very severely criticised by many highly knowledgeable scholars of modern China (lots on this can be found via a bit of Googling). Nonetheless, I have little more time for Mao than I have for figures of the far right. Solidarity, Ian

I'm very glad the suspensions have been lifted. On the wider issues, I can't really see how a Marxism discussion group could feasibly avoid all discussion of the Soviet Union, but do understand that measures need to be taken to avoid Trotskyist/Stalinist flame wars. Could there be some

From: Jeff meis...@xs4all.nl When hearing this I cannot help but remembering the (almost surely) widespread use of rape (apparently organized as a systematic policy) in the Bosnian war of the early 90's, when some Marxists (i.e. Stalinists) found themselves (for reasons I still cannot
