 TWENTIETH CONGRESS OF CPSU
The study concludes that the public statements and actions of the CPC between 1955 and 1960 were not such as to suggest that the CPC understood the implications of the Twentieth Congress and the rise of modern revisionism.
On the contrary, the analysis argues, the CPC and Mao mistook the development of Khrushchevite revisionism to be a further development of Marxism-Leninism and assisted Khrushchevism to achieve dominance in the international communist movement in the meetings of the Communist and Workers' parties in 1957 and 1960.
This is clearly a reversal of the public estimate of the 20th Congress made by the CPC in 1956, and repeated in its support for the declaration of 1957 and the statement of 1960.
