Social-imperialism refers to a type of imperialism that is, as quoted by Vladimir Lenin, as "socialist in name, imperialist in deeds".[1] This term has been utilised by Anti-revisionists and Maoists to state that nations such as the Soviet Union after Stalin's death, and China after the promotion of Deng Xiaoping were Social-imperialists.
