- Abstract
With the foundation of Maoist organizations, the People's Republic of China became a political issue in Quebec in the first half of the 1970s. Some militants have had the opportunity to make a pilgrimage to Beijing at the invitation of the Chinese authorities. To what extent did the image they developed of China help to legitimize their political project ? Could their admiration for China be explained simply by the ideological blindness that they are accused of having manifested ? To answer these questions, we propose a comparison of impressions delivered by Quebec travelers from a variety of backgrounds.
