Description
Summary:In this article, we investigate one of the ways Argentinians approached the revolutionary experience in China through trips as part of delegations. Framed by the “Popular Diplomacy” signed by the Chinese foreign policy in the face of the vast majority of countries not recognizing the People’s Republic of China in the context of the Cold War, the invitations to intellectuals, journalists, and activists were one of the ways to break the imposed siege. We perceive that Maoism permeated through them and that it had a scope that went beyond the organization of its own strength. Even though since 1965 the trips were undertaken parallel to the establishment of Maoist organizations in that country, these trips represent an antecedent of the bonds between Argentina and the Popular Republic of China. Intending to focus on that role of the trips, we opted for assessing the ones already made outside the local Maoist organizations. Through the published testimonies of the trips, we intend to analyze the organization of those kinds of trips as well as the issues, thoughts and interests voiced by the travellers in order to reveal new elements on the first links between Argentina and the Chinese revolutionary experience.
