rdf:langString Chiangism (simplified Chinese: 蒋介石的学说; traditional Chinese: 蔣介石的學說; pinyin: Jiǎng Jièshí De Xuéshuō), also known as the Political Philosophy of Chiang Kai-shek, or Chiang Kai-shek Thought, is the political philosophy of President Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, who used it during his rule in China under the Kuomintang on both the mainland and Taiwan. It is a right-wing authoritarian nationalist political ideology which is based on mostly Confucian and Tridemist ideologies, and was used in the New Life Movement in China. It is a mix of many political ideologies, including revolutionary nationalism, Tridemism, socialism (until 1955), militarism, paternalism, Confucianism, Methodism, constitutionalism, fascism, Authoritarian capitalism (from 1955) and conservatism. The extent of the influence of fascism on Chiang’s ideology is perceived differently among scholars. Dictatorial power is used in a Chiangist government in times of war, civil unrest, and rebellion. The influence of Chiangism was largely diminished in Mainland China by the Campaign to Suppress Counter-revolutionaries of the communists and most of the influence of Chiangism began to wane at the start of democratization on Taiwan beginning in the 1990s.
