“Theory” and Practice of the Modern Revisionists

A speech delivered at the Higher Party School of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, June 10, 1964


MARXIST-LENINISTS, UNITE!

Our Party is responsible to the working class of our country and also to the whole international communist and workers’ movement.

Our stand in the present great debate is clear. On one side is the scientific socialist point of view and method, that is, Marxism-Leninism.

On the other side is the revision of Marxist-Leninist principles, the betrayal of the revolutionary essence of scientific socialism, that is, revisionism, capitulation to imperialism and to penetration by bourgeois ideology.

Our stand in the present debate is unequivocal: We have been, we are and will always be on the side of the revolutionary forces of Marxism-Leninism.

We are with the Marxist-Leninist fraternal Parties.

We support the Marxist-Leninist comrades who are suffering attack within those Parties controlled for the time being by revisionists.

Our action is guided by the principle: “Marxist-Leninists, unite!”

We can already say that the majority of the Communists of the world are taking a resolute Marxist-Leninist stand.

We firmly believe that even in those Parties dominated by the revisionists, most of the militants, when they find out the facts and if they are able to express their own opinions, will reject revisionism. It could not be otherwise, because when a worker becomes a Communist he does so not to betray the cause of the working class and socialist revolution, but for the triumph of the cause of the working class!

We should spare no effort to restore the unity of the international communist movement on the basis of MARXISM-LENINISM, the only basis on which unity can genuinely be achieved!

The Chinese Communist Party’s proposal concerning the general line of the international communist movement and the correct stand of your Party in the debate constitute an inestimable contribution in this respect.

It is futile for the revisionist leaders to aggravate and intensify their divisive manoeuvres.

We are living in the era of the victory of socialist revolution throughout the world.

The present debate within the international communist movement will certainly result in the victory of Marxism-Leninism.

The international communist movement will emerge strengthened from this debate to lead the working class and all the oppressed and exploited to final victory!

Long live the CHINESE COMMUNIST PARTY and its CENTRAL COMMITTEE!

Long live Comrade MAO TSE-TUNG!

Onward to new revolutionary victories!

Onward to new victories for the revolutionary movement of national liberation!

Onward to new victories for the socialist revolution throughout the world!

Long live THE FRATERNAL UNITY OF THE MARXIST-LENINISTS OF THE WORLD!

Workers of all countries, oppressed peoples and nations, unite!

Long live MARXISM-LENINISM!
