Abstract: No political system can be adequately analyzed without reference to the sources of power which supply the motor force for political action. Traditional accounts of Republican Chinese politics, in terms of shifting, competing personalist cliques within the state bureaucracy, too often emphasize the form and not the tools of conflict. Without a further understanding of the sources of power which these cliques sought to tap, the significance of much of the history of Republican Chinese politics will be lost.
