Marxist-Leninist-Maoist


Marxism–Leninism–Maoism (M–L–M or MLM) is a political philosophy which builds upon Marxism-Leninism and some aspects of Mao Zedong Thought. It was first formalised in 1993 by the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement.

Maoism was considered synonymous with Mao Zedong Thought (also known as Marxism-Leninism Mao Zedong Thought) from the 1960s onwards — when many anti-revisionist Marxist organisations sided with China following the Sino-Soviet split — until 1993, when the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement (RIM) formalised Marxism-Leninism-Maoism as a new and higher stage of Marxism-Leninism. This caused a split in the Maoist movement, with the adherents of Mao Zedong Thought leaving the RIM and congregating around the International Conference of Marxist-Leninist Parties and Organizations.

Building on the theory of the vanguard party by Vladimir Lenin, the theory of the Mass Line outlines a strategy for the mass popularisation of revolutionary ideology, consolidation of the dictatorship of the proletariat and strengthening of the party, and for the building of socialism.

The Mass Line can be summarised by the phrase "from the masses, to the masses". It has three components (or stages), as follows:

These three steps should be applied over and over again, reiteratively uplifting practice and knowledge to higher and higher stages.
