Donations and National Governance in the Qing Dynasty
by Wu Siwu
About This Novel
This book takes political ecology and institutional practice as the path, focusing on the complex relationship between donations and national governance in the Qing Dynasty. It deeply describes the ever-changing and turbulent scenes of donations as the court's purse, a new ladder for the promotion of gentry, and a new arena for confrontation between Manchu and Han forces in a specific political situation. Then it outlines the evolution and internal logic of the "invisible confrontation" between the Manchu and Han sides in new fields such as donations and imperial examinations, explores the internal rationale and deep mechanism of the Manchu-Han confrontation that eventually led to "institutional dissolution" in the Qing Dynasty, and summarizes the multiple experiences of technology, system and culture in national governance in the Qing Dynasty.
