Zedong Mao Ordre des livres

Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung is a book of statements from speeches and writings by Mao Zedong (formerly romanized as Mao Tse-tung), the former Chairman of the Chinese Communist Party, published from 1964 to about 1976 and widely distributed during the Cultural Revolution.The most popular versions were printed in small sizes that could be easily carried and were bound in bright red covers, thus commonly becoming known internationally as the Little Red Book.

Výbor z textů čínského komunistického vůdce Mao Ce-tunga uspořádal slovinský filozof Slavoj Žižek. Jedná se o statě, které Mao napsal do doby, než se v Číně na jeho podnět rozběhla Kulturní revoluce. Texty, věnované existenci rozporů ve všech věcech nebo texty výlučně politické, dokládají dvojí parametr Maova uvažování - na jedné straně je to filozofická analýza, inspirovaná čínskou duchovní tradicí, na druhé pak sklon k pouhému opakování banálních pravd. Výbor doprovází rozsáhlá předmluva Slavoje Žižka. Interpretací některých pasáží Maových textů Žižek mimo jiné usiluje dokázat, že když Mao odmítl negaci negace jako jeden z principů dialektiky a rozpoutal Kulturní revoluci, významně tak napomohl pozdější restauraci kapitalismu v Číně.

The first documented, systematic study of guerrilla warfare, Mao Tsetung's 1937 text remains the definitive guide to orchestrating revolution in developing countries. Based on Mao's own experiences in fighting Chiang Kai-shek's Nationalists and his interpretations of the classic strategies of Sun-tzu, On Guerrilla Warfare outlines the tactics that have proven effective around the world, from Vietnamese jungles to Middle Eastern deserts.Prescient in his thinking and concise in his expression, Mao conceived of guerrilla operations as a complement to traditional warfare. He explains why guerrilla activities should be integrated into conventional military procedures and discusses the organization and operation of guerrilla units. His unorthodox strategies transform disadvantages into benefits: using retreat as an offensive maneuver; indoctrinating locals for employment as spies; and compensating for lack of firepower with speed, surprise, and initiative.Translator Samuel B. Griffith provides a comprehensive introduction in which he profiles Mao, examines the nature and conduct of guerrilla warfare, and considers the implications of such warfare for American policy.
