In my pamphlet "Capitalism and workers struggle in China" I point out that many of the youth who participated in the Cultural Revolution, and then realised they had been manipulated by Mao, became disillusioned, not only with Mao but also with socialism. Some became admirers of the West and supporters of neoliberal economics. This helped prepare the ground for the restoration of capitalism.
