Answer:
Mao Zedong was a radical leader who supported communist ideology.
Explanation:
Mao Zedong was the top leader of the Communist Party of China and founder of the People's Republic of China. Under his leadership, the Communist Party seized power in mainland China in 1949, when the new People's Republic was proclaimed, following the victory in the Chinese Revolution against the forces of the Republic of China. The communist victory caused the flight of Chiang Kai-shek and his followers of the Kuomintang to Taiwan and made Mao the maximum leader of China until his death in 1976.
On the ideological level, Mao assumed the approaches of Marxism-Leninism but with its own nuances based on the characteristics of Chinese society, very different from the European one. In particular, Mao's communism gives a central role to the peasant class as the engine of the revolution, an approach that differs from the traditional Marxist-Leninist vision of the Soviet Union, which saw the peasants as a class with little capacity for mobilization and awarded urban workers the central role in the class struggle.
Mao's government was characterized by intense campaigns of ideological reaffirmation, which would cause great social and political upheavals in China, such as the Great Leap Forward and especially the Cultural Revolution.
