Red at Heart. How Chinese Communists Fell in Love with the Russian Revolution https://global.oup.com/academic/product/red-at-heart-9780190640552?cc=ca&lang=en&; <https://global.oup.com/academic/product/red-at-heart-9780190640552?cc=ca&lang=en&;> https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/elizabeth-mcguire/red-at-heart/ A cultural chronicle of the rich Chinese-Russian interplay and exchange from the 1920s to the 1950s. McGuire (History/California State Univ., East Bay), who has lived and worked in both Moscow and Beijing, tells the stories of the many pioneering Chinese who became passionate students of Russian language and revolutionary thought and participated in exchange programs over the decades. She focuses on two waves of Chinese travelers: those politically active in the 1920s who were excited by the Bolshevik Revolution as having gone further than the overthrow of the Qing dynasty in China in 1911 and were eager to learn more; and those committed Communists who wanted to deepen the Sino-Soviet “friendship” of the 1950s. _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: https://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
