The article, “Beijing Hosts First Marxism Congress”, published on the Global Times on October 12, contained an indirect quote mistakenly attributed to Professor Roderick MacFarquhar. The quote was translated from a news report by a Chinese language media outlet that the Global Times neglected to confirm and double check. We hereby apologize to Professor MacFarquhar and our readers for any possible confusion incurred by the mistake.
