Features: The Collected Works of Mao Zedong includes 803 documents by Mao Zedong, serving as a comprehensive multi-volume collection of Mao's works that reflects the scientific system of Mao Zedong Thought. It fills the gap left by the absence of a selected collection of Mao's writings during the socialist period. The editorial work of the Collected Works spanned eight years and was published in three installments. The Collected Works only selects documents with correct or fundamentally correct content. For manuscripts and previously published speeches or records of conversations, the editorial work primarily involved verifying historical facts and correcting text and punctuation. For unpublished speeches or records of conversations, significant effort was required for technical textual editing. The annotations in the Collected Works primarily focus on explaining people, events, quotations, documents, etc. They also introduce Mao Zedong's ideological viewpoints related to the main text through annotations or correct inaccuracies. We extensively researched materials, consulted experts, and conducted rigorous verification to ensure the annotations were as complete as possible.
