Chiangism (), also known as the Political Philosophy of Chiang Kai-shek (), or Chiang Kai-shek Thought, is the political philosophy of President Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, who used it during his rule in China under the Kuomintang on both the mainland and Taiwan. It is a right-wing authoritarian nationalist ideology based on mostly Tridemist principles mixed with Confucianism. It was primarily practiced as part of the New Life Movement, as well as the Chinese Cultural Renaissance movement. It was influenced by other political ideologies, including socialism, fascism, Georgism and paternalistic conservatism. Chiang's Methodist Christian beliefs also played a role in shaping his ideology.
