    <![CDATA[Wer gedacht haben sollte, über Mao Tse-tung sei im Wesentlichen alles gesagt, hat sich gründlich getäuscht! Im Gegenteil nämlich dürfte vieles, nein: das meiste, was in der Vergangenheit über Mao publiziert wurde, aufgrund dieses grandiosen Buches von Jung Chang und Jon Halliday als überholt gelten. Man wird sich nicht zu weit aus dem Fenster lehnen, wenn man voraussagt, dass diese Arbeit auf Jahrzehnte hinaus als <em>die</em> Mao-Biografie Bestand haben wird.<p>  Mit Maos Lebensgeschichte resümieren die Autoren des klug gegliederten Bandes zugleich die Geschichte Chinas im 20. Jahrhundert. Schritt für Schritt folgen wir Maos Weg vom schwer erziehbaren Schüler in das Zentrum der Macht. Die Lektüre entlarvt den chinesischen Revolutionsführer außer als einen Mann, den der Anblick sich gegenseitig erschlagender Bauern körperlich erregte, als einen ökonomischen Analphabeten sonder gleichen: Während die eigene Bevölkerung Not litt, unterstützte Mao befreundete Länder, deren wirtschaftliche Situation zum Teil deutlich besser war als die eigene, chinesische Waffenlieferungen erfolgten in aller Regel ohnehin zum Nulltarif, die Rückzahlung von gewährten &quot;Krediten&quot;, die zu gewähren man sich eigentlich überhaupt nicht leisten konnte, wurde von befreundeten Staaten nicht erwartet. Und selbst die nach der bisher einhelligen Lesart ihm zuzurechnenden militärisch-strategischen Leistungen, wie namentlich der &quot;Lange Marsch&quot; 1934/35, werden von den Autoren als ihm in den Schoß gefallene (Fehl-)Leistungen anderer entzaubert.<p>  Mehr als ein Jahrzehnt haben Chang und Halliday recherchiert, zahllose Zeitzeugen, zum Teil aus der nächsten Nähe des Diktators befragt. Sie haben eine Unzahl von Archiven in aller Welt durchforstet, unbekannte Quellen gehoben, ausgewertet und schließlich aus einer unschätzbaren Zahl an Puzzlesteinen ein Bild vom &quot;Großen Vorsitzenden&quot; zusammengefügt, das endlich mit den Legenden aufräumt, die sich bis heute um ihn rankten. Unvorstellbar nach der Lektüre der knapp tausend Seiten, dass das Abbild dieses an nichts, aber auch gar nichts anderem als der Macht um ihrer selbst willen interessierten Massenmörders (ohne Berücksichtigung der Kriegstoten sollen seiner Herrschaft über 70 Millionen Menschen zum Opfer gefallen sein!) in China bis heute den Status eines Heiligenbildes besitzt. -- <em>Andreas Vierecke</em></p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[Douglas Sirk is one of the unsung heroes of American cinema. From 1942 to 1958 he directed some 30 lush melodramas starring the likes of Rock Hudson and Lana Turner. Sirk's films are many-layered, the style transcending the melodrama and transforming the material into works of art. Viewed today these films reveal a disintegrating society of pretence and illusion, befogged by alcohol. 30 photos.]]>
