The Anti-Marcos Struggle
The Philippine dictatorship of Ferdinand E. Marcos was characterized by family-based rule and corruption. This sultanistic regime in which the ruler exercised power freely, without loyalty to any ideology or institution had to be brought down because Marcos would never step down. In this book Mark Thompson analyzes how Marcos' opponents in the political and economic elite coped with this situation and why their struggle resulted in a transition t…

Martina Deuchler. Under the Ancestors’ Eyes
Elite kinship as the persistent motif of Korean history is the subject of this long-awaited book by Martina Deuchler, a sequel to her 1992 monograph, The Confucian Transformation of Korea: A Study of Society and Ideology. Using a rich array of primary sources ranging from genealogies to inheritance papers, epitaphs, and local gazetteers, Deuchler places her analysis of the seventeenth-century adoption of patrilineal principles derived from the Ch…
The Qing in Historiographical Dialogue
The Qing in Historiographical Dialogue Evelyn S. Rawski During the late 1960s, when I obtained my Ph.D., the leading questions confronting China historians concerned China’s failure to modernize/industrialize, and the circumstances that led to the triumph of the Chinese Communist Party in establishing a nation-state in 1949. The field at that point was just emerging from focusing on the “western impact,” a period which Paul Cohen’s essay describe…
Early Modern China and Northeast Asia
In this revisionist history of early modern China, Evelyn Rawski challenges the notion of Chinese history as a linear narrative of dynasties dominated by the Central Plains and Hans Chinese culture from a unique, peripheral perspective. Rawski argues that China has been shaped by its relations with Japan, Korea, the Jurchen/Manchu and Mongol States, and must therefore be viewed both within the context of a regional framework, and as part of a glo…

Universal Empire
The claim by certain rulers to universal empire has a long history stretching as far back as the Assyrian and Achaemenid Empires. This book traces its various manifestations in classical antiquity, the Islamic world, Asia and Central America as well as considering seventeenth- and eighteenth-century European discussions of international order. As such it is an exercise in comparative world history combining a multiplicity of approaches, from anci…
The Qing Formation and the Early-Modern Period
Building Culture in Early Qing Yangzhou
This book explores cultural change in a Chinese city following the Manchu conquest of 1644. The city of Yangzhou, at the intersection of the Grand Canal and the Yangzi river, is best known as the site of human and physical devastation during the conquest and as a vibrant commercial center during the eighteenth century. The book focuses on the period between the conquest and the city's commercial florescence-a moment in which Yangzhou was a center…
Worshiping the ancestors
"Despite their compelling presence and often exquisite quality, Chinese ancestor portraits have never been studied as a genre. This illustrated book is the first to explore in depth the artistic, historical, and religious significance of these remarkable paintings and to place them in context with other types of commemorative portraiture.". "Since the sixteenth century, portraits were commissioned in China in great number and variety. Depictions …

Culture and State in Chinese History
Last Emperors
The Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) was the last and arguably the greatest of the conquest dynasties to rule China. Its rulers, Manchus from the north, held power for three centuries despite major cultural and ideological differences with the Han majority. In this book, Evelyn Rawski offers a bold new interpretation of the remarkable success of this dynasty, arguing that it derived not from the assimilation of the dominant Chinese culture, as has previo…

Harmony and Counterpoint
Harmony and Counterpoint
This volume of nine essays draws together leading scholars in anthropology, social history, musicology, and ethnomusicology to address the roles and functions of music in the Chinese ritual context. How does music, one of a constellation of essential performative elements in almost all rituals, empower an officiant, legitimate an officeholder, create a heightened state of awareness, convey a message, or produce a magical outcome, a transition, a …
Presidential Address
Thirty years ago, Association for Asian Studies President Ho Ping-ti summarized the state of Qing studies in his address, "The Significance of the Ch'ing Period in Chinese History" (Ho 1967). Since that time, there have been major shifts in scholarly perceptions of the nature and significance of Qing rule that bear directly on contemporary issues of nationalism and ethnicity. I will survey the recent secondary literature, compare current formulat…

Ch'ing Imperial Marriage and Problems of Rulership
This chapter examines the marriages of the Manchu rulers of the Ch'ing dynasty, focusing on those closest to the throne: the sons and daughters of emperors and the emperor himself. The Ch'ing forbade intermarriage between the Manchu rulers and the civil elite of Han Chinese officials, thus using marriage to maintain the distinct identity of their special followers, the Chinese and Manchu bannermen. Whereas the Ch'ing adopted the traditional Han C…

Research Themes in Ming-Qing Socioeconomic History-The State of the Field
China's political "opening to the West" in 1979-89 directly affected historical scholarship on Ming and Qing socioeconomic history. Some PRC scholars were able to travel abroad, others met foreign specialists at international conferences held in China, and many more were introduced to foreign scholarship through Chinese translations of articles and books published in Taiwan, Japan, Europe, and North America. Foreign scholars, also, profited from …

Ming Society and the Economy
In the first half of the 1970's, scholarship on Ming China continued to move away from the older assumption that this was a stagnant period in Chinese development. In Japan, where the bulk of published work on Ming society and economy is produced, the late Ming - early Ch'ing period is seen as an important historical turning point in social relations between landlords and tenants, and the period which gave rise to a “new gentry.”

Sprouts of Capitalism”—a New Transplant
Ming historians who enjoyed the data published during the 1950s as a result of the academic espousal of “sprouts of capitalism” in China during the late Ming period should find the recent revival of this theme most intriguing. As Ramon Myers has noted in a recent issue of CH'ING-SHIH WEN-T'I, WEN-WU published an article in 1975 by Li Min, describing eighteenth-century cases of land debt found in the archives of the Board of Punishment. According …

A Historian's Approach to Chinese Death Ritual
Death Ritual in Late Imperial and Modern China
During the late imperial era (1500-1911), China, though divided by ethnic, linguistic, and regional differences at least as great as those prevailing in Europe, enjoyed a remarkable solidarity. What held Chinese society together for so many centuries? Some scholars have pointed to the institutional control over the written word as instrumental in promoting cultural homogenization; others, the manipulation of the performing arts. This volume, comp…
