Question

question 3
what was one of the major differences between the communists of the soviet union and the communists of china?
chinas communists wanted to overthrow capitalism while russian communists fought wealthy industrialists.
communists in the soviet union saw it as a cultural movement while in china it was a religious uprising.
there was little difference between the communists of the soviet union and the chinese as both sought the same goal.
the communists in china were more liberal in their dealings with the outside world then the soviet communists.

Explanation:

• The first option is incorrect because both Soviet and Chinese communists aimed to overthrow capitalism, with Soviet communists targeting industrialists and Chinese communists focusing on feudal landowners as part of anti-capitalist/anti-exploitative efforts.
• The second option is wrong: neither movement was primarily cultural (Soviet) nor religious (Chinese); both were political and revolutionary movements focused on class struggle and state power.
• The third option is incorrect because there were key strategic differences, such as the base of support (Soviets relied more on urban workers, Chinese on rural peasants) and later foreign policy approaches.
• The fourth option is correct: Chinese communists, especially after the reform and opening-up period, adopted more liberal, outward-looking policies in engaging with the global economy and outside world compared to the more closed, ideologically rigid Soviet approach for much of its history.

Answer:

D. The communists in China were more liberal in their dealings with the outside world then the Soviet communists.
