Mao Zedong et la révolution culturelle
*Warning:* This video contains historical scenes of violence that may shock an unprepared audience. In 1966, the great Chinese communist leader was sidelined by the moderates. But Mao Zedong had not said his last word. At the age of 72, he launched the Cultural Revolution. It was necessary, he said, to purge the Communist Party 'infested with capitalist traitors'. Millions of fanatical young Chinese responded to the call. Baptized the Red Guards, they organized the hunt for cadres, bourgeois, and professors, who were arrested or assassinated by the hundreds of thousands. China sinks into anarchy.
