A masterpiece by Liang Qizi, academician of the Humanities Group of Academia Sinica and professor of the University of Hong Kong! Through the history of the development of charitable organizations, we look at the relationship between socioeconomic changes and value changes in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and dialogue with overseas Sinology. It responds to the question of whether China has a "welfare state" tradition, depicts a lively historical scene for Ming and Qing society, and enriches the world's understanding of traditional Chinese society!
