Changing the Song Dynasty: the Logic and Traps of Wang Anshi's Reform
by Xu Fuhai
About This Novel
The author of this book uses the American sociologist's modern sociological theory of "unintended consequences" to interpret this unprecedented "reform" with modern implications around the core question of "why good policies turned into bad things." The author makes full use of historical materials to explain the background, philosophy, process and results of Wang Anshi's reform; he also uses sociological comprehensive policy analysis tools to analyze the human issues, institutional issues and policy environment issues involved in the reform, explores the implementation effects and feedback of reform policies at the grassroots level, and interprets the causes and consequences of the failure of reform policies.
