图书描述

How did ordinary people in the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) deal with the demands of the state? In The Art of Being Governed, Michael Szonyi explores the myriad ways that families fulfilled their obligations to provide a soldier to the army. The complex strategies they developed to manage their responsibilities suggest a new interpretation of an important period in China's history as well as a broader theory of politics.

Using previously untapped sources, including lineage genealogies and internal family documents, Szonyi examines how soldiers and their families living on China's southeast coast minimized the costs and maximized the benefits of meeting government demands for manpower. Families that had to provide a soldier for the army set up elaborate rules to ensure their obligation was fulfilled, and to provide incentives for the soldier not to desert his post. People in the system found ways to gain advantages for themselves and their families. For example, naval officers used the military's protection to engage in the very piracy and smuggling they were supposed to suppress. Szonyi demonstrates through firsthand accounts how subjects of the Ming state operated in a space between defiance and compliance, and how paying attention to this middle ground can help us better understand not only Ming China but also other periods and places.

学术也是arbitrage的艺术……

评分

Even after the Ming dynasty collapsed, people still manage to maintain prerogatives to serve their interests in the Qing dynasty. Interestingly, local magistrate was choosing to apply an outdated regulatory regime because he saw no alternative. Seems like learning how to benefit from regulatory arbitrage has embedded in Chinese’s’ NDA.

终于读完了!我本人对第3章更感兴趣,但还是有点值得商榷的地方,另外抓到注释里引用文献的typo啦。第5、6章实在是太累了就摸鱼了,不过有时候用英文看对家谱文本本身的描述很容易找不到北,可能是我英文太菜了吧。anyway非常值得一看。P.S.大陆版一定会被censor这个跑不了。
