Moufawad-Paul’s theorization of Maoist thought as both a continuation and a rupture within Marxist-Leninist traditions. The work frames the Maoist turn in terms of historical materialism, using revolutionary praxis as it unfolds through shifts between Marxism-Leninism and Marxism-Leninism-Maoism. It argues that Maoism constitutes a coherent theoretical development, advancing revolutionary content while breaking historical limitations. The book also situates its periodization of Maoism in global anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist struggles.","WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT  \nCONTINUITY AND RUPTURE  \nThis is a fascinating must-read and highly readable book; even if you disagree with the author’s arguments, you will reconsider much of the rhetoric that we take for granted regarding Maoism. Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, author of An Indigenous Peoples’ History of the United States  \nContinuity and Rupture is Moufawad-Paul’s theorization of apolitical and revolutionary thought of today. This book offers an active framework for understanding the Maoist turn in Marxism, which the author grounds in a challenging vision of history anda necessity for social change.  \nJulian Jason Haladyn, author of Boredom and Art  \nCapitalism is headed for disaster. Any serious attempt to alter the course of history requires revolutionary theory. Whether you agree with J. Moufawad-Paul’s conclusions or not, this book raises the questions we all need to ask.  \nGabriel Kuhn, author of Life Under the Jolly Roger and Turning Money Into Rebellion  \nCalling all organizers, anti-capitalists, and people who care about anticolonial struggle—this book is for you. Beautifully clear, Moufawad-Paul lays out the concepts that we almost never get to learn in our schools or in our social movements—the concepts that many have struggled to grasp and apply—the concepts that are necessary for revolution. Placing the tools of western philosophy in the service of explicating the significance and necessity of actually-existing Maoism, this book is an accessible and compelling primer in science, theory, philosophy, and  \nrevolution. This book is just in time. At its heart, it is an historical materialist account of the unfolding of revolutionary praxis through the rupture and continuity of Marxist-Leninism and Marxism-Leninism-Maoism. Moufawad-Paul begins his periodization and clarification of Maoism from the revolutionary theory of the Community Party of Peru and the Communist (Maoist) Party of Afghanistan situated in the global struggle against capitalism-imperialism. And for you, eurocentric academic Marxists: you have been put on notice—you can’t say you haven’t been told.  \nRachel Gorman, Associate Professor in Critical Disability Studies, York University  \nMoufawad-Paul’s Continuity and Rupture is a much welcomed attempt to bring philosophical clarity to political debates which all too often are wrapped around vague terms at the expense of conceptual clarity. Its central thesis claims that Maoism is a coherent theoretical development that both continues the revolutionary content of Leninist theory and breaks with its historical limitations, thus opening up a new set of theoretical possibilities ultimately rooted in the scientific propositions of historical materialism. It is a provocative thesis, but one that is lucidly explored by Moufawad-Paul. This is a book that should renew interest in historically concrete forms of Marxist theory and produce spirited, but invaluable, debate on the nature of Maoism. Highly recommended for both practical and philosophical reasons!  \nEsteve Morera, author of Gramsci’s Historicism and Gramsci, Materialism and Philosophy  \nContinuity and Rupture  \nPhilosophy in the Maoist Terrain  \nContinuity and Rupture  \nPhilosophy in the Maoist Terrain  \nJ.
