Book reviews on Gao's book

[edit]
  • Official website for Revolution newspaper, voice of the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA. (Arilang's remark:Isn't this a banned ultra leftist political party?)


  • Culturewars.org.uk



  • The revolution, revised by Michael Rank at guardian.co.uk Michael Rank's review on Mobo Gao's book The Battle for China's Past: Mao & the Cultural Revolution.
  • ""A powerful mixture of political passion and original research, a brave polemic against the fashionable view on China. ... Aims a knockout blow at Jung Chang's recent book on Mao, which Bush and the conservatives rave-reviewed." Gregor Benton, Professor of Chinese History, University of Cardiff.
  • "This important book ... Highlights the renewal of popular support for socialism and the growing opposition to contemporary state policies." --Martin Hart-Landsberg, Professor of Economics, Lewis & Clark College, Portland, Oregon "

Mobo Gao's own word

[edit]

Excessive use of Mobo Gao's book, when the book is " a brave polemic against the fashionable view on China" (in Professor Gregor Benton's word). 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24

Excessive use of Mobo Gao's book, when Gao himself admitted that his concepts are "strange and not mainstream": 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16**





  • On Cultural Revolution, wholesale removal of anti-Mao content claiming "dead link", when new reference can easily be found on published books or the web.2
  • On Cultural Revolution, wholesale removal of Chinese government official anti-Mao content, claiming unreferenced information, when the official Chinese government stance on Mao is a well known fact.3
