Influence of Sun Yat-sen's Nationalism on Chinese Communist Party's Guidelines for the Founding of P. R. China

Sun Yat-sen's idea of nationalism has exercised heavy influence on the Chinese Communist Party's guidelines for the founding of P. R. China, as the Party needed previous social and political theories and cultural heritage as the point of departure for her own theoretical frame. In this sense, nationalism maintained by Sun Yat-sen who sympathized socialism and who had established a series ideas of democratic republic, served as a direct reference. The author holds that this influence, which consisted of ownership of the state and form of the state, cannot be simply interpreted in terms of political strategies.
