    "Maoish China": Julia Lovell Next Tuesday Jan 26 at 12:30!

    How does an understanding of the 27 years of Maoist rule, including its program to export Maoist ideology worldwide, help us to understand the current global situation? Julia Lovell (Birkbeck College, University of London) won the Cundill Prize for best historical writing for her 2019 book Maoism: A Global History, a work that reviewers have found "indispensable" and "revelatory." In this talk, Lovell will discuss the legacy of Maoism today--in China and beyond. The Zoom Webinar event, sponsored by the Political Economy Project, is free and open to the public.
