The National Republican schism (Russian: Раскол национального республиканства; Raskol natsionalnogo respublikanstva) was the fracturing and divergence in allegiance within nations adhering to National republicanism. This was caused by the democratization of Russia, which was seen as the de facto leader of the National republican bloc, polarizing opinion within the national republican world. Within the International Republican Coalition (IRC), member states found themselves split along various lines, with some governments endorsing and seeking to emulate Russia's reforms while others remained steadfast to traditional national republicanism.
Background
Pre-schism era
Before the schism, the national republican world was largely under the de facto leadership of Russia, through the International Republican Coalition (IRC). While a handful of nations maintained a large level of diplomatic and political autonomy, such as China with its State Yangism variant of national republicanism, most nations were heavily influenced by Russia's interpretation of the ideology. This interpretation emphasized strict authoritarian governance, protectionist economic policies, and a focus on self-sufficiency.
The Russian Lustrum (1973-1978)
Political dynamics shifted in Russia during the 1970s. During this period of political change, known as the Russian Lustrum, hardline figures like Chairman Ilya Kiselev and other staunch national republicans were ousted by more liberal factions within the party. These reformists sought to depart from the strict authoritarianism and isolationism of the past, advocating instead for a more democratic form of national republicanism.
In 1978, Sergey Gromov ascended to the chairmanship in 1978, through the first democratic elections in Russia,. Under his leadership, Russia embarked on a path of reform, embracing a more liberal interpretation of National Republicanism aligned with democratic values. This change in policy evoked both criticism and support within the national republican bloc, leading to significant divisions and ultimately contributing to the deterioration of the once-cohesive bloc.
