The transmutation of Marxism into something Chinese began with Mao, who recognized the importance of the peasantry to the revolution, rather than solely focusing on the workers, as did the Russians to the great harm of the peasantry.

After Deng’s modernizations and subsequent changes, I don’t believe that Marx and Engels would recognize the Chinese regime.

On the other hand, I believe that Confucius, Xunzi, and especially Hanfeizi would see a familiar governing philosophy.
