An attempt has been made to identify the major Red Guard and Revolutionary Rebel groups in each province, autonomous region, and major city, to list the opponents as well as the allies of these groups, to note shifts in these alliances over time, and to provide a brief chronology (where possible) of the varying fortunes of these organizations as of May 1968. Users of these charts should note the following two points. First, the description of a given Red Guard or Revolutionary Rebel group as "revolutionary," "conservative," "counterrevolutionary," and so forth, is in every case taken from official Chinese Communist statements (e.g., Mao Tse-tung, Chou En-lai, Madame Mao, the Central Committee, the Central CRG) and does not represent a judgment of the DDI/SRS. These statements are usually found in Red Guard sources, but are believed to be accurately rendered. On the other hand, Red Guard pro- nouncements per se as to the political leanings of their own or other groups have not been used, as they are notoriously biased and misleading. Second, allied and opposing groups are identified only on the basis of concrete evidence. For example, in a given province, group "1" may be opposed by groups "2" and "3", but the inference does not necessarily follow that groups "2" and "3" are allies (the three groups may, in fact, be mutually hostile). The DDI/SRS would welcome comment on these working charts, addressed to either the Chief of the Staff or the compile -t- Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2009/12/03: CIA-RDP85T00875RO01000010029-5 Saniti ed Co A ro ed for Release 2009/12/03 CIA RDP85T00875R001000010029 5 z py pp v : - - List of Abbreviations aka Assn CC also known as Association Central Committee RGA TTOMTT Revolutionary Great Alliance "the thought of Mao Tse-tung" Coll(s) College(s) Univ(s) University(ies) 25X1 c-revy counterrevolutionary YCL Young Communist League CRG Ctte Cultural Revolution Group Committee est Gen GHQ GPCR Hqs it L-M established General General Headquarters Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution Headquarters Joint Lower-Middle M-S(s) nfi prep prol revy RG(s) Middle School(s) not further identified preparatory proletarian revolutionary Red Guard(s) Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2009/12/03: CIA-RDP85T00875R001000010029-5 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2009/12/03: CIA-RDP85T00875RO01000010029-5 NOTE The number under the columns labelled "Opponents" and "Supporters" refers to the number assigned arbitrarily by the compiler to each Red Guard or Revolutionary Rebel group. For example, in Anhwei Province "27 August" (group #4) is supported by #10 (Red Guard Army) and opposed by #11 (Army Command). In Chekiang Province, #1 is opposed by #3 and #25, but supported by groups 11 through 20. These numbers are not in- tended to indicate any hierarchy of importance or power among the various Red Guard groups in a given province. They are solely for purposes of identification in this publication. The user will also note the detailed listing of Red Guard groups for some areas (Peking, Kwangtung, etc.) and the brief compilations for others (Kirin, Ninghsia, Shensi). The brevity of the latter is due solely to lack of information.
