The 90th anniversary of the Long March serves as a moment to re-examine this pivotal strategic retreat. Spanning two years and covering vast distances, the maneuver was essential in preserving the Chinese revolutionary movement and setting the stage for its later success. While often viewed through a domestic lens, the event holds broader implications. Historian Hans van de Ven from Cambridge University suggests that the Long March and the wider revolutionary process in China possess global importance. Beyond reshaping the nation's own future, these developments exerted a substantial influence on international affairs, marking them as events with consequences that extend well beyond China's borders.
