During the war of resistance against Japanese aggression,the Three People's Principles,which integrated various groups and revolutionary forces,were widely recognized by all political forces,including the Kuomintang and the Communist party?Due to the political demand,the Kuomintang had a strong political and realistic understanding of the Three People's Principles during the war of resistance against Japanese aggression,and attached great importance to Three People's Principles,a very important "political symbol".In order to legitimize the authoritarian rule of one party,the Kuomintang constructed and interpreted the wartime connotation of the Three People's Principles in accordance with its political needs through the media of newspapers and periodicals.The publication of the Three People's Principles Semimonthly coincided with the period of the negative cognition and practice of the Three People's Principles of the Kuomintang after the Anti-Japanese War entered the stalemate stage.In its published articles,in order to maintain the rule of the one-party dictatorship of Kuomintang,its position of inheriting and developing the Three People's Principles presented a strong practical characteristic.In terms of nationalism,it glorified the three people's principles and describes Sun Yat-sen as the successor of Confucian orthodoxy,so as to cater to the cultural nationalism trend during the Anti-Japanese War and achieve his anti-communist political scheme.Seizing the opportunity of the dissolution of the Communist International in 1943,it opposed the proletarian political theory with the words of "the supremacy of the state" and "the supremacy of the nation",so as to achieve his anti-communist goal.In the aspect of Democracy,it echoed the political reality that the one-party dictatorship of Kuomintang and Chiang Kai-shek's personal dictatorship were strengthened,and it tampered with "The theory of the distinction of power" of Sun Yat-sen,and advocated strengthening the power of the government and building an "universal government".It also advocated "One-party rule" to rejected other parties,including the Communist party.In the aspect of people's livelihood,it amplified the negative elements in Sun Yat-sen's historical view of people's livelihood and rejected the materialism and class struggle.In terms of economic policy,it advocated the implementation of "controlled economy",the strengthening of state power's intervention in the economy,the development of state economy,and the control of prices.In the end,it backfired,causing vicious bureaucratic capital expansion and uncontrollable price hikes.The establishment and distribution of the Three People's Principles Semimonthly not only reflected the trend and changing characteristics of the political situation,but also showed the reality of the Kuomintang and Chiang Kai-shek's despotism and centralization during the war.From the construction of the discourse on the Three People's Principles in the Three People's Principles Semimonthly during the war,we can see that the Kuomintang group headed by Chiang Kai-shek deviated from the democratic and revolutionary spirit of the Three People's Principles of Sun Yat-sen and its defects in the ideological construction.
