No Great Wall: On The Continuities of the Chinese Revolution

Carlos Martinez is an independent researcher and political activist from London, Britain. He is the co-founder of No Cold War and Friends of Socialist China, and the author of The End of the Beginning: Lessons of the Soviet Collapse (LeftWord Books, 2019). In No Great Wall: On the Continuities of the Chinese Revolution, Martinez concisely traces the history of the Chinese revolution from the formation of the Communist Party of China in 1919, to the current Xi Jinping era. Contrary to those who argue there was a betrayal of the revolution in 1978 with Deng Xiaoping's Reform and Opening Up, Martinez lucidly shows how the Chinese revolution has been a continuous process, adjusting its governance in accord to changes in national and geopolitical contexts. This collection also includes the essay "Will China Suffer the Same Fate as the Soviet Union?" which relates the development of the Chinese revolution to the Soviet, and "The CPC: The Most Successful Political Party in History," which reflects on the successes of the Chinese revolution following the 20th National Congress of the CPC.
