“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


CONTRADICTION BETWEEN THE IMPERIALIST CAMP AND THE SOCIALIST CAMP

But let us take a closer look at the “thought” process of the modern revisionists.

For them, the fundamental contradictions of the contemporary world are reduced to one thing only: the contradiction between the socialist camp and the imperialist camp, and moreover this contradiction has and can have only one aspect – peaceful competition!

Furthermore, for the revisionists, this contradiction must be overcome and resolved by “all-round cooperation”, thus doing away with all its class content.

This theory of class collaboration on an international scale attains the height of absurdity with the stupidly pretentious claim that the fate of humanity can be arranged by agreement between two men, “wise and reasonable, having powerful authority”, namely, between the representative of U.S. imperialism, the enemy of the people of the whole world, on the one hand, and Khrushchov on the other.
