Editor's Notes
- Anson When: July 1921 Who: initially founded by Chen Duxiu and Li Dazhao Where: French concession of Shanghai. The birth of the party was declared on a boat on south lake in jia xing
- Karen MARXISM: – valued national spirit patriotism – emphasis on reform and innovation, modernisation – also concepts of honour and disgrace was appealing – just reward for workers’ labours – the factory owners who did not labour as they did would become at the same level as the workers and workers – affordable health care + education
- Launched by sun yat sen and adolf joffe (soviet official) in 1923 (x) They formed the National Revolutionary Army and set out in 1926 on the Northern Expedition The CPC joined the KMT as individuals, they wanted to make use of kmts superiority in numbers to spread communism The KMT, on the other hand, wanted to control the communists from within. Both parties had their own aims and the Front was unsustainable. In 1927, Chiang Kai-shek removed the Communists from the Front while the Northern Expedition was still half-complete. This initiated a civil war between the two parties which lasted until the Second United Front was formed in 1936 to prepare for the coming Second Sino-Japanese War.
- Wing Kiu Sun Yat Sen - Founder of Guomindang He is referred as the “Father of the Nation” He had a political philosophy which is known as the 3 principles of the people: nationalism, democracy and the people’s livelihood He played an important role in overthrowing the Qing dynasty during the time of the Double Ten Revolution He was the founder and the first leader of the Guomindang However eventhough he was considered one of the greatest leaders, he had a hard political life and was frequently exiled from countries After the success of the revolution, he resigned from his post as president Unfortunately, Sun Yat Sen did not live long enough to see his party come into power over the country during the Northern Expedition
- Wing Kiu Chiang Kai Shek - led the Guomindang Person in charge of the academy in Huangpu to train officers to whom may lead the army in the future Influential member of the guomindang and was really close to Sun Yat Sen He became the Commandant of the guomindang’s whampoa Military Academy in Canton in 1924 He also became the leader of the guomindang when sun yat sen died in 1925 in 1926, he led the Northern expedition to unify the country which then led to him becoming the leader of China Not only this, he led china in the second sino-japanese war 1928 → led the suppression of the communist party was a man which promoted traditional Chinese culture and rejected western democracy unlike Sun Yat Sen
- Wing Kiu Commonly known as Chairman Mao Chinese communist leader, founder of the People’s republic of china. responsible for ‘great leap forward’ and ‘cultural revolution’ He is famous for his Marxist-Leninist theories, military strategies and political policies Adopted chinese nationalist outlook in early life However converted to marxism-leninism whilst working at Peking university Started after school club talking about Communism (study of marxism) He helped to find the red army He is known to be an important person to Chinese history since he improved the status of women, improved the education and health care of citizens in China. However some people view him as a dictator which ruined chinese culture and abusing human rights since he is responsible for the deaths of people through starvation, forced labour and executions Marxism: Idea of utopia Equal share of wealth / Treated equal This is because 95% of the country were peasants, everybody was so poor = VERY APPEALING TO CHINESE PEOPLE
