The 1st National Congress of the Kuomintang (

Republic of China.[1]

Results

During this first congress, the Kuomintang's reorganization process to become the Kuomintang of China (

Chinese Revolutionary Party was formally completed.[2] A policy declaration was also drafted to fight against imperialism and feudalism, determining three policies of alliance with Soviet Union and alliance with the Chinese Communist Party in the First United Front. This first congress eventually led to the reunification of China four years later after the Northern Expedition.[3]

As time progressed, the Chinese Kuomintang (KMT) lost its grip on China and after its defeat on the Chinese mainland, the party retreated to Taiwan. From 1950 to 1952, the KMT underwent a thorough organizational restructuring. The result was a renewal of its Leninist origins from the previous reorganization in 1924.[4][5] This came from the help of the Kuomintang Central Reform Committee. The Kuomintang Committee created a variety of direct or indirect controls over the government and society that gave it unquestioned dominance. This eventually led to the party interacting closely with the people on Taiwan as a result of the party recruitment and the implementation of local-level political reforms, two salient agendas that had never taken place in the mainland.
