Synopsis

"China's Political History in the Past Hundred Years" begins with the Opium War and ends with the Northern Expedition. The book divides China's political changes in the past century into three paragraphs: The first paragraph ranges from the Opium War to the Sino-Japanese War of 1898-1894, which was the era of invasion by foreign powers and the fermentation of new ideas; the second paragraph is from the Reform Movement of 1898 to the Revolution of 1911, which is the era when revolutionary forces continued to develop and the Manchu Qing Dynasty was finally destroyed; the third paragraph is from the founding of the Republic of China to the Northern Expedition, which is the era of struggle between revolutionary forces and the remaining warlord forces of the Qing Dynasty. Through the investigation of political events in the past hundred years, "China's Political History in the Past Hundred Years" sorts out the various practices that Chinese people have carried out to seek a suitable political system: in the choice of political system, are there disputes between constitutionalism and republicanism, in the choice of state system, federalism or unitary system, parliamentary system or presidential system? The author Li Jiannong elaborates on the major events in Chinese politics and their impact in each paragraph, especially the part before the Revolution of 1911, which is quite objective, insightful, and concise. From this, we can see Li Jiannong's excellent ability to extract and summarize information. "China's Political History in the Past Hundred Years" is a historical summary of people with lofty ideals looking for a suitable political system for the country. To understand modern history, you must read it.

Reader comments

I admire the literary masters of the Republic of China. Their descriptions are detailed and their analysis is profound. I feel ashamed. The Republic of China gave rise to great figures. I have benefited a lot from the century-old history. I pay tribute to my predecessors.

Looking for Books for Junior High School Study! ! (Over)

My grades started plummeting when I entered junior high school. I obviously learned and knew how to do most of the questions correctly, but I got them wrong when I took the test. Now I am in high school! In the end, I did okay in the exam. Thank you everyone for reading the book (although I didn't read it either). I'll just treat this post as a souvenir.

Those Who Play Politics Are All Evil. Please Give Me This Book so That I Can Understand It. Random Comments Are Retarded.

I want to read a book similar to "Game Theory". Regarding politics, pure knowledge is also fine. The officials don't have the nerve to recommend it? The novel is about a power struggle involving people cannibalizing people. The more realistic and real the better. The palace fights about business and house fighting are too low-level, so don't get involved with it. Reform and govern the country, military category recommendation
