Legacy
Mao is regarded by many as an important revolutionary who defeated Chiang Kai-shek and helped establish China as an industrial and military power. At the same time, he is derided for social programs like The Great Leap Forward and The Cultural Revolution which displaced thousands, if not millions, and led to widespread famine and violence.http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/363395/Mao-ZedongThough still officially venerated as the father of modern China, his influence on economic policy and political philosophy has largely been replaced by the reforms of Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, and Hu Jintao.http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/363395/Mao-Zedong
