DESCRIPTION:Formative for many student radicals who came of age in the 1960 and ’70s 
 were the Students for a Democratic Society, the Cultural Revolution, May 
 1968 in Paris, revolutions in the Third World, and the 1970s New Communist 
 Movement. For many Leftists who sought to engage, critique, and advance 
 these movements, Marxism meant Maoism, which they understood to be an 
 advancement of Marxism–Leninism. Currently, as the Left of Generation Z 
 comes of age, a kind of neo-Maoism is growing more popular, both on college 
 campuses and online. What is Maoism, and what is its relationship with 
 Marxism? How did Maoism emerge out of the Chinese Revolution? What made 
 Maoism plausible, and what makes it appealing today? What may have rendered 
 it implausible? What is the significance of Maoism as a political tendency 
 on the Left, and why did Maoism seem in some ways to be more successful 
 than Trotskyism?\n\nWhat has Maoism been, and where is it going? How does 
 its history weigh on us today — and why should we care about 
 it?\n\nPANELISTS:\nDavid Ewing\nCJ Hunt\nGerald Smith\n...and
