This study thus tends to explore the effects of guanxi and political climate on power bases. Questionaires were issued to workers across many industries. With 1099 valid questionnaires collected, the results from hierarchical regression analysis yield significant relationships exist among the three variables, which indicating guanxi significantly affects different power bases in various patterns; significant relationships also emerged between political climate and power bases; partial mediating effects of political climate were also found in the relationship between guanxi and power bases. Recommendations, suggestions, as well as limitations of this study were also presented based on the empirical findings.
