Revised Critique of Chang and Halliday

[Rwchina@aol.com]

Hi all,

A revised version of my critique of the Chang and Halliday book, Mao: The Unknown Story, titled "'To Be Attacked by the Enemy is a Good Thing: The Struggle Over the Legacy of Mao Zedong and the Chinese Socialist Revolution" has been published as an article in the journal Socialism and Democracy.  For this revision, I added more on  the content of the book itself, as well as some other more recent supporting material.

Under the terms of publication, I am allowed to send out a limited number of copies of the PDF file of the article, which are not supposed to be distributed more widely.  Please let me know if you would like me to send you the file.

However, I would urge you to become more generally acquainted with Socialism and Democracy, with which I have a long association, if you are not already familiar with it. Web posting for the journal is at www.tandf.co.uk/journals.
