Maoism, also known as Mao Zedong Thought, is a political ideology that developed from the teachings of Chinese political leader Mao Zedong. Developing from the 1950s until Mao's death in 1976, it was widely applied as the guiding political and military ideology of the Communist Party of China (CCP) and as a theory guiding revolutionary movements around the world.
The basic principles of Maoism include continuous revolution, the people's line, people's war, new democracy, and cultural revolution. Continuous revolution under the dictatorship of the proletariat addresses the danger of society reverting to capitalism. The people's line is a leadership method that seeks to derive correct policies based on the needs and ideas of the masses. People's war involves mobilizing the surrounding population against the enemy, and new democracy refers to Mao's idea of a multi-class, anti-imperialist, and anti-feudal coalition. Cultural revolution is an active effort to cleanse the remnants of the old culture and advance proletarian culture.
