Xiao Gongqin (born Sep 1945; simplified Chinese: 萧功秦; traditional Chinese: 蕭功秦; pinyin: Xiāo Gōngqín) is a Chinese historian and leading exponent of neoauthoritarianism. A professor at Shanghai Normal University, Xiao's historical research has focused on the period between the late Qing dynasty and the early Republic of China. From 1989 onwards, Xiao became involved in the debate over China's reform process, arguing for incremental reform based on China's particular national character and the replacement of Marxism by Chinese nationalism.
