Summary "What does "radical right" mean in China? If it is difficult to understand its meaning in the political discourse of twenty-first century China (as the current CCP regime claims to represent the left and the liberalist forces the right), we could understand it as an enduring ideology specific to the Chinese context in the Republican era. In particular, the Chinese Youth Party with its version of national socialism can be a good lens through which to view this ideology. Incorporating my interview with Mrs. Zhao Yusheng, a minor member of the CYP, I define the "radicalness" and the "right-ness" of the CYP first, and then discuss its historical and historiographical importance in the making and unmaking of the Chinese radical right from the early 1920s to late 1940s"-- Provided by publisher
