...years Godard has been redefining, re-evaluating, re-applying Marxist-Leninism-Maoism, black liberation, women's liberation as have many other French "progressives" (Sartre, Genet, Fanon, De Bouvier, Marcuse). Godard himself always try to ask the most relevant questions at that stage of the movement which he is recording. He obscures the line between information and propaganda, between content and form...

At that time, mass peasant armies...
...succeed in destroying the bureaucratic system, but it is an open question whether he can now create an alternative system through which he can govern China and promote its industrialization. At present, he must rely largely on the army to help him run the country. Outside China, Maoism commands the allegiance of only one ruling party, in Albania, and a handful of insignificant parties (including those in New Zealand, Burma, Thailand). But Maoist factions and splinter parties exist in many countries, and Mao has become a hero to the New Left...
