The Moving Away from the Imperial Regime[2], or Departing the Imperial Regime, [3] is a collection of historical essays written by Chinese historian Qin Hui,[4] majorly dealing with the topics of modern Chinese history before and after the Xinhai Revolution, and questioning the long-dominant Marxist historical view and the historical view of strengthening the nation in Chinese historiography.[5] The book describes China's tortuous history of constitutional transformation.[6]
