| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The Xinhai Revolution, which opened the road to the modernization process of China, overthrew the alien Manchurian dynasty that ruled the country from 1644 and offered a new model of political structure and governance - on the basis of a Constitution and within the framework of a parliamentary republic. It radically differed from a traditional model of governance. The activity of the revolutionary Nanking Government (1912-1913), especially in the period of the interim presidential rule of Sun Yat-sen, laid down the "channel" along which the movement to modernization in the political sphere began. |
