The China of Chiang K'ai-Shek: A Political Study E-text prepared by Judith Wirawan, Adam Buchbinder, and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team "The China of Chiang K'ai-Shek: A Political Study" by Paul Myron Anthony Linebarger is a historical account written in the mid-20th century. The book examines the political landscape of China during the era of Chiang K'ai-shek, detailing the institutions, parties, movements, and military forces that shaped the Chinese government and its ongoing struggles. Linebarger seeks to analyze the complexities of governance in China, illustrating how these elements contribute to the nation's identity and political destiny. The opening of this work introduces the context of the National Government of the Republic of China, established in the wake of immense political upheaval and military confrontation. Linebarger aims to clarify that the text does not depict a biography of Chiang K'ai-shek but rather focuses on the broader political mechanisms at play, detailing how the unification of China amidst its many factions and external threats has come to define its governance. He further explores China's historical political structures, the influence of Confucianism, and the legacy of Sun Yat-sen, setting the stage for an intricate discussion of the country's trajectory towards a cohesive governmental form in turbulent times.
