Maoism
Maoism was a theory created because of Mao’s beliefs and ideologies. Similar to Karl Marx, he agrees that a proletariat revolution is essential in order for society to change. As opposed to Marx who states that the factory workers should revolutionize, Mao felt that the farmers in China were the ones in need of this revolution.  Marx supports an economically strong state that is industrialized. Mao on the other hand, does not support industrialization or technology.
