Anti-Imperialism, War and
Peace, Part 6a
Ho Chi Minh and Le Duan
Political and
Military in Revolutionary War
Le Duan’s
“Political and Military in Revolutionary War” is a short, powerful piece of
writing that manages to include a great deal of wisdom in a few words.
Le Duan says, confirming Pomeroy:
“… the close
combination of political and military struggle constitutes the basic form of
revolutionary violence in South Vietnam”
This article is an example of
communist simplicity, brevity and clarity that can hardly be beaten. It is
ideal for study circles.
If necessary, such an article
as this can be read out loud, and serve as its own introduction. It is a good
example to anyone, of how to reproduce your theory in plain terms that workers
and peasants can understand, without losing any of its quality.
Le Duan mentions the National
Democratic Revolution thus:
“Like the national-democratic revolution all over
the country in the past, the present South Vietnamese revolution has the
workers and peasants as its main force and the worker-peasant alliance led by
the working class as the cornerstone of the national united front.”
A small archive of Le Duan’s writing can be
found on MIA.
