Social History of the Taiping Rebellion
by Liu Chen
About This Novel
The rise of the Taiping Army was rooted in the corruption of officials in the Qing government, who forced the people to rebel. But not long ago, civil unrest also broke out in the areas ruled by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. This phenomenon has profound implications. Previous studies on the Taiping Rebellion focused more on the Taiping Rebellion against the Qing Dynasty and less (or not at all) on the people's resistance to the Taiping Rebellion, which raises the intriguing question of "resisting the rebels." For even a "revolutionary" regime, to maintain long-term peace and stability, the direction and direction of the people's hearts and minds are also top-level issues. Through the study and judgment of more than 170 typical cases, this book gives a panoramic view of the interaction and influence between the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom regime and the people. Based on specialized research on the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's political history and military history, it constructs an important aspect of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's social history (the history of popular resistance) and objectively summarizes the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's historical experience and historical lessons.
