La storia del PCC e le sue reinterpretazioni
Le recenti ‘Risoluzioni’ al centenario del Partito
abstract
This essay examines the ‘Resolutions’ on the history of the Chinese Communist Party published in 2021, on the occasion of the centenary of the Party. The paper also offers a comparative analysis of this document with other similar texts issued in 1945 and 1981, which also provide the contextual framework for the official interpretation of history. Moreover, there are striking similarities between the ‘Resolutions’ issued by Xi Jinping and those formulated by Mao Zedong. In addition, this essay investigates elements of Xi’s ‘New Era’, such as the revised periodisation of PRC’s history, the cultivation of Xi’s personality cult, and the so-called ‘Four Histories’.
Keywords: The Four Histories • Xi’s personality cult • 2021 Resolutions of the Chinese Communist Party • Xi Jinpingp’s New Era • 100th anniversary of the Chinese Communist Party
