Document Summary
The influence of stalin and the soviet union on china"s revolution. This annotated bibliography will primarily focus on the influence of stalin and the soviet union on china leading up to the revolution in 1949 and onward until the sino-soviet conflict. Four academic journal articles will be discussed alongside three relevant primary sources. In mao zedong"s writings, it was apparent that he found inspiration in the communist model of the soviet union, and held admiration for joseph stalin. Stalin"s ideals and the assistance of the soviet union were incredibly influential to the communist revolution in china because of its contribution of resources which facilitated mao"s revolution. While mao recognised that the triumph of the chinese. Communist party (ccp) was not possible without help by the soviets, challenges existed between soviet communism and the model that was best suited to china because of differing levels of economic and cultural development.
