  Sun Yat-Sen - LoveToKnow 1911   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-16)
Relations between Sun Yat-sen and Yuan Shih-k'ai were never cordial, but until the ejection from Peking of the Kuo Min-tang Radicals by the President Dictator in 1913, they preserved the appearance of goodwill, and towards the end of 1912 Sun accepted a highly paid appointment as Director of National Railways at Shanghai.
After the failure of the Kuo Min-tang's " war to punish Yuan," Sun wandered again in a wilderness of conspiracies.
Eventually, after the death of the Dictator (1916) he became one of the Cantonese group of politicians which waged continual warfare against the party in power at Peking.

 Harold Isaacs: The Peasants' War in China (1934)
In former campaigns the driving of a Kuo Min Tang spearhead into Red territory was always followed by the seemingly miraculous rise of peasant armies from the hills on all sides, the defeat of the invaders and the almost immediate recovery of lost territory.
Chiang’s armies, according to a pro-Kuo Min Tang eyewitness, march into devastated village in which sometimes the only living things are the wracked bodies of wounded peasants who have not been able to escape from under the raining bombs.
The Kuo Min Tang is incapable of solving a single one of the problems which give rise to the peasant war.

The Kuomintang (KMT; Traditional Chinese: 中國國民黨 Hanyu Pinyin: Zhōngguó Guómíndǎng; Wade-Giles: Chung-kuo Kuo-min-tang; Tongyong Pinyin: Jhungguo Guomindang; literally the National People's Party of China), is a political party currently active in the Republic of China (ROC) on Taiwan.
Soviet advisers--the most prominent of whom was an agent of the Comintern, Mikhail Borodin--began to arrive in China in 1923 to aid in the reorganization and consolidation of the KMT along the lines of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, establishing a Leninist party structure that lasted into the 1990s.
Since 2002, the KMT and PFP have coordinated electoral strategies and run a combined ticket, with Lien running for president and Soong running for vice-president in the ROC presidential election, 2004.

 For A New Communist International
At the head of the Kuo Min Tang were the big business men and the military generals who wanted to control the movement for their own benefit and who were but the tools of the foreign imperialist powers.
In the heart of the Kuo Min Tang were to be found terribly poor and oppressed elements who had been aroused into activity by the struggle against the foreign imperialists but who also had their own interests to look after.
Acting under the belief that the Kuo Min Tang Party was for the workers, and having faith in the Communists, the workers of Shanghai rose in a great general strike in April 1927, overthrew the reactionaries, and established a People's government.

 Encyclopedia: Chinese reunification
With the loosening of authoritarian rule in the 1980s and the shift in power within the Kuomintang away from the Mainlanders who accompanied Chiang to Taiwan, the KMT began to move away from the ideology of Chinese unification.
In 1991, President Lee Teng-hui announced that his government no longer disputed the rule of the Communists on the mainland leading to semi-official peace talks between the two sides.
What supporters of Chinese unification do oppose is desinicization or the effort to create a Taiwanese identity that is separate from the Chinese one.

 Mao Tse Tung and the Chinese Revolution   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-16)
The Kung Tsiang Tang (the KTT or the Chinese Communist Party) was however to characterise its military victory over the Kuo Min Tang as the 'victory of the national bourgeois democratic revolution' which had begun 38 years earlier.
Despite this, the KMT was driven by events for a while to fight imperialism and the forces of reaction which had remained as strong as they had been in 1911.
This partition was so radical in the province of Kiangsi that the KMT were forced to legitimate it when they 'pacified' the rebellious area in 1934, although such land reform was scarcely in accord with their general policy.

His power had collapsed and before the autumn the Kuo Min Tang was to be driven from the mainland.
Thus the KMT armies were fighting against the revolutionaries-the peasantry -who had been continually oppressed and cheated and were now being driven to extremes of desperation.
The KMT claimed that co-operatives would improve the living standards of their participants and, although the number of such co-operatives rose from 5,000 to 15,000 between 1933 and 1936, they only in fact served the interests of the land-owners.
