Dai Jitao Thought

Dai Jitao Thought or Dai Jitao Doctrine is an ideology based on the interpretation of the Tridemism by some Kuomintang members, including Dai Jitao, since Sun Yat-sen's death in March 1925. Dai Jitao Thought became the ideological foundation of the right wing Kuomintang, including the Western Hills Group. Dai Jitao himself described it as "Pure Tridemism" (纯粹三民主义).

Dai Jitao opposed left-wing Kuomintang's Marxist interpretation of Sun's alleged concept of "Mínshēng" as a class struggle.

Some scholars argue that Dai Jitao Thought fused the content of Buddhist nationalism and conservative nationalism. Dai Jitao and Chiang Kai-shek's Tridemism reflects the characteristics of cultural nationalism and cultural conservatism.
