The right KMT was officially formed after the |
The right KMT was officially formed after the cleansing against communists and communist sympathizers in the KMT in 1927. Its most prominent figures were Chiang Kai-shek, Hu Hanmin (before his imprisonment), and Chiang Ching-kuo. The right KMT took a more anti-communist, socially conservative, and authoritarian party line than the original KMT, but it continued Sun’s Georgist economic policies in Taiwan after it was defeated by the communists in Mainland China. It is also very anti-Japanese and Chinese nationalist in general. |

After the death of Chiang Kai-shek in Taiwan, the Chinese nationalist KMT regime began to relax its political restrictions and to improve its civil rights and freedoms under the reforms of Chiang Ching-kuo. In 1986, the Democratic Progressive Party was formed as a real opposition party, which Chiang Ching-kuo did not try to shut down. |
