Politics of Liaoning


The politics of Liaoning Province in the People's Republic of China is structured in a single party-government system like all other governing institutions in mainland China.
The Governor of Liaoning is the highest-ranking official in the People's Government of Liaoning. However, in the province's single party-government governing system, the Governor has less power than the Liaoning Chinese Communist Party Provincial Committee Secretary, colloquially termed the "Liaoning CCP Party Chief".
Previous to 1949 and the takeover of the Communist forces, Liaoning was governed by the Fengtian Clique of warlords and interchangeably officials of the Chiang Kai-shek bureaucracy. During the Qing dynasty Liaoning was known as the province of Fengtian, and was governed by a zongdu or Viceroy, along with the provinces of Jilin and Heilongjiang. The province itself also had a governor.
