That's an interesting blog post which I came to via the Military History Carnival #4. I once thought I had created a nifty turn of phrase, and by Googling it found I was not the first to invent it. If you try "banquet culture" in Google, you'll find a few others who have had the same light bulb over their head. Thank you.

In this regard, it seems like the cadre culture is a direct descendant of the scholar-bureaucrat/mandarin culture.

It's more than just banquets, of course, but the whole culture of being a cadre both under the Nationalist and the Communists was all about taking advantage of your position in a million diffent ways. There has been at least some work on this, although it is a pretty diffuse thing. I think I just made “banquet culture” up, although I may have read it somewhere.
