Abstract: The rise and fall of the Boxer Movement spanned the juncture of two centuries. In blood and fire, China bid farewell to the nineteenth century and entered the twentieth century. This article analyses Chinese politics after the suppression of the Boxers, including the formation and spread of revolutionary thought; the transformation of the foreign powers' policy toward China from "carving the melon" to "preserving China's territorial integrity;" and constitutionalism and the late Qing reforms.
