Description

The Anti-Confucius Book Collection consists of 747 titles donated by UCSD PhD alumnus Matthew Wills. They were largely political propagandas produced during 1960s-1970s, also known as the Cultural Revolution period in China. Many of the titles are compiled by local propaganda entities that discontinued after 1976. Materials in this collection reflect a 1970s campaign to reinforce the power of political elites and affirm the absolute correctness of Maoist socialism.
