Democratic centralism (Chinese: 民主集权制)[a] is a main principle of Leninist vanguard parties, but it was also closely related to the party organization and rule of the Chinese nationalist Kuomintang (KMT) in the Republic of China. However, unlike the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), the KMT did not include "democratic centralism" in its party constitution.[1]

两党对组织原则的解释基本相似，只是俄文汉译时名称略异。国民党未像俄共那样将"民主集权制"写入党章，但在"一大"通过的"纪律问题"决议案中明文规定以"民主主义的集权"。
