This book combines the relevant methods of traditional elite intellectual history and "new cultural history" to provide a systematic and in-depth overall investigation and interpretation of the gestation, formation, development and connotation of the modern Chinese national concept. It not only pays attention to the careful disclosure of historical context, the excavation and interpretation of typical texts, and the perspective analysis of important concepts, but also pays attention to the impact and significance analysis of the national system, party policies, key figures and major events, and strives to present the many historical aspects of the socialization of this concept. The book emphasizes that the modern Chinese national concept has always been accompanied by the encounter of Chinese and Western thoughts and the intersection of ancient and modern concepts, showing the entanglement and interaction between the nation and the country; for the cognitive subject, it always contains the conflict and integration of emotion and reason, witnessing the contradiction and adjustment between ideal and reality. Its spread and recognition in modern China can be said to have profoundly reflected the political and cultural spirit of China and the destiny of the nation and country in that era. It is an extremely important phenomenon in the history of political thought and social and cultural history.

This book is one of the author's four parts about the era of great transition. It focuses on the mentality of those who experienced it before and after the Revolution of 1911, and their observations on the drastic changes in the political system, state system, and social nature. The author returns to his old aspiration, and with the help of the eyes and ears of the diary owners who have vastly different temperaments and political opinions, he re-experiences the changes of the times along the course of history, and deeply understands how all kinds of people faced the great changes, adapted to the situation, and adjusted themselves under the turbulent times of the revolutionary era. Trying to gain a foothold in the process of the new era so that it can be used to some extent can, on the one hand, supplement the vision of big history and enrich the images of history. More importantly, it can help change the way of understanding history and restore the difference and activity of human beings as historical subjects.

Modern China has witnessed great changes, and political and social changes have undergone tremendous changes, which are worthy of re-examination. The author believes that understanding history begins with historical facts, and therefore we must start by seeing the individual parts and fragments before understanding the whole. Therefore, the fragmentation and disintegration known as fragments today are a necessary and necessary part of this process. However, the ultimate goal of recognizing history is to understand and explain history. Therefore, this kind of historical facts that exist in individual and fragmentary forms have no cause and effect, no upward and downward connections, and no origin and trace, so they become isolated facts that can neither explain themselves nor others. Therefore, fragments of historical facts need to be connected with each other to reproduce the cause and effect, up and down connections, and origins between them. Only then can the facts in history become meaningful facts. This book is the author's research on the social changes in modern China based on this research path. It is of great academic value and readability.

The rise of regional studies is one of the distinctive features of the shift in historical research since the 1980s. The academic community has abandoned the past grand narratives that were limited to political history, and instead tried to find a path to present "overall history" through case studies or regional studies, and to construct its own interpretation model of Chinese history. How to define "region" has become one of the priority issues that researchers need to deal with. Based on the systematic and comprehensive collection of Qing Dynasty archives, records, and political documents, this book will focus on exploring the formation and development process of county administrative districts in the Qing Dynasty. That is, as a national-level institutional design, its institutional origins, what kind of institutional changes it experienced in the Qing Dynasty, and its disappearance during the Republic of China. The spatial distribution of county administrative districts in the Qing Dynasty, and the relationship between the establishment of county administrative districts in the Qing Dynasty and local governance have important academic significance.

The Qing Dynasty was the last dynasty of ancient Chinese society. Its political power was governed by a coalition of Manchu and Han bureaucracies, with Manchu nobles as the main body, and authoritarian centralization reached a very high level. The political system of the Qing Dynasty still centered on imperial power. Its system had both the common features of the traditional dynasties of the Central Plains and the characteristics of the Manchu nationality, allowing its rule to be maintained for nearly three hundred years. While previous research was based more on official history, the author of this book has conducted in-depth research on the politics and society of the Qing Dynasty, especially grassroots society, secret societies, and population mobility based on archival materials, and has made great achievements. This book is the culmination of the author's nearly thirty years of academic research and has important academic value.

Nearly 120 years have passed since the Hundred Days Reform. Is the research on the history of the Reform Movement of 1898 no longer meaningful? How did Kang Youwei quickly win the trust of Emperor Guangxu from being unknown? Why did Zhang Yinhuan and Weng Tong, important ministers of the late Qing Dynasty, fail to recover before and after the Reform Movement of 1898? When the "Six Gentlemen of 1898" were arrested, how did Wang Zhao, a fugitive after the coup, survive and surrender? The late Qing Dynasty inherits the remnants of dynastic politics since the Qin and Han dynasties, and initiates major changes that have not been seen in thousands of years. It can be said to be a key turning point in the history of the country. The author started by combing through archives, diaries, letters, newspapers and periodicals, focusing on Zhang Yinhuan and involved in the historical research of the Reform Movement of 1898, involving the intricate personnel disputes around Kang Youwei, as well as the affairs of Wang Zhao, Gao Xiezeng, Li Shengduo, Wang Kangnian, and the "Military Aircraft Four Chapters in Beijing" in the Year of 1898 activities, and then conducts a detailed analysis of the most secret parts such as whether Li Hongzhang and Zhang Yinhuan accepted bribes in the negotiations at Luda University and Kang Youwei's bribery strategy in political planning, as well as the deaths of Cixi and Guangxu, and the deeds of Yuan Shikai and Yu Youren before and after the Xinhai Revolution. The writing is smart and the textual research is precise. It will undoubtedly overturn many past stereotypes and open up a new realm for the history of the Reform Movement of 1898 and even the history of the late Qing Dynasty.

This book mainly focuses on Jishui and Anfu counties in Jiangxi Province to discuss the process of the grassrootsization of Yangming Studies in the two places, including how academics develop locally, the mobilization ability of academic groups, and how Yangming Studies scholars manage their relationships with local townships. Many social undertakings accomplished under the leadership of Yangming scholars helped establish their local authority, especially the continuous tax and labor reforms in Jishui and Anfu counties in the 100 years from Jiajing to Wanli. Local Yangming scholars were the heroes behind this achievement, which made some Yangming scholars tend to be regarded as saints by local scholars and people. The cooperative and symbiotic relationship and method between Ji'an Yangming School and local families can be said to have realized to a large extent the ideal of "transforming the countryside" of the scholars of the Song and Ming Dynasties.

"Ming Xue", as the successor of "Song Xue", is also called "Song Ming Neo-Confucianism". The local officials of the Ming Dynasty should belong to the new type of scholar-officials after the Sui and Tang Dynasties. However, in terms of the scholar-officials of the Ming Dynasty who extremely pursued "pure discussion" and had the characteristics of personal liberation, their spiritual world was the direct successor of the scholar-officials of the Six Dynasties. This book explains the knowledge and actions of scholar-bureaucrats in the Ming Dynasty through the research method of interaction between thought and society, that is, the context of history and society, from multiple perspectives such as the distinction between a gentleman and a villain, the confusion of origin and official seclusion, the dilemma of loyalty, filial piety and justice, the choice between life and death, the distinction between elegance and secularity and their interaction. This is undoubtedly different from previous research that was too biased towards "ideational history", but hopes to reinterpret the actual dynamics of the intellectual history of the Ming Dynasty based on the interrelationships in political history, educational history, regional studies and other fields. This is a study of spiritual history, and its purpose is to examine the relationship between the spirit of native officials and politics and society.

It is a good guide for readers to understand the history of modern academic culture and education.

Behind the turbulent historical process, there are emperors, princes, civil servants and military generals with character, temperament and means. Their every move has shaped the wonderful five thousand years of history. I hope that after reading this book you will laugh out loud and have a preliminary understanding of the general context of Chinese history. This volume is the second in this series of books, telling the history from the Western Jin Dynasty to the end of the Tang Dynasty.

"Records of Manchuria" was written during the Tiancong period. It is an important official history book in the Qing Dynasty that records the rise of the Manchus and the historical events of the Nurhaqi period. Among the existing Manchu, Han and Mongolian texts of "Manchu Records", the contents in Manchu and Chinese do not completely correspond, indicating that the Chinese text is not a direct translation of Manchu. Academic circles generally believe that the Manchu "Manchu Records" is of higher historical value. This translation and publication is based on the re-translation of the Manchu part, and the comparative printing of the Manchu (transliteration), the original Chinese, and the newly translated Chinese, so that the academic community can better understand the similarities and differences between the three, and fully explore and utilize the historical value of "Manchu Records".

Looking back at the wisdom of three thousand years, there is a grand strategy to stabilize the country; in the overview, the back of the dynasty, the crow of chickens and the small plots of dogs and thieves. In the countries of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, heroes competed with each other. Those who gained wisdom prospered, while those who rebelled against wisdom perished. Between the sky and the ground, a great battle of wisdom unfolded: the "Lian Heng" plan was launched, and the violent Qin surrendered: the "He Zong" plan was devised. The world was professed to be ministers, and he made friends with people far away and attacked those close to him, and finally became the emperor of Qin. One plan makes the world prosper, one plan makes a country fall. The charm of wisdom and the power of courage are displayed here. The wise man is the teacher of the king, and the brave man is the first in the world. His power and momentum swallow up mountains and rivers, and his emotions shock the ages. This heroic freehand brushwork will last forever in the vast world.

Mainly from the perspective of East Asian regional society, this book draws on previous research results, and through comparison and identification of relevant historical materials from China, Japan, and South Korea, attempts to more objectively restore the ins and outs of the "Japanese pirates" issue around the 16th century, and its potential impact on the East Asian regional order in modern times. It further expands the research field of the "Japanese pirates" issue, and puts forward the Wanli turning theory of the Ming-Japanese relationship.

The Ming and Qing Dynasties were a historical stage of comprehensive transformation of traditional Chinese society. Business not only developed highly, but also became increasingly professional. Not only did various business groups and business associations and chambers of commerce appear, but books on business methods and business guidance (referred to as "business books" in the manuscript) also began to get rid of the form of secret manuscripts and turned into public publications. Moreover, these business books not only appeared on the market openly as "public readings", but were also widely popular. This phenomenon reflected the impact of the development of the social commodity economy and the increasing prosperity of commerce on social concepts at that time. This article is divided into three parts to introduce the development and spread of business books during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which will promote the in-depth study of the development of Ming and Qing society.

This book contains a number of essays by the author, which explore how historical research can start from specific places but go beyond the "local" to review historical narratives within the framework of the country and nation from aspects such as regional culture, ethnic identity, and Hong Kong's position in Sino-British and Southern China. Another significance of "going out of place" is also reflected in the author's use and thinking of old and new historical materials. Many articles explore how to read physical materials such as songbooks, dictionaries, drawings, and museum collections in a broader context, and discuss how, at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries, digital historical materials in the Internet age have changed the objects and methods of historical research.

This manuscript is the final result of the National Social Science Foundation project "Ethnic Relations and Cultural Identity Issues in the Tang Dynasty as Seen in Epitaphs" (Grant No.: 09BZS038; completed in June 2015). This book selects the cases of the three ethnic groups of Gaoche, Tuoba, Tuguhun and Sogdiana as examples, combines epitaph materials with handed down documents, and fully refers to the existing research results of Chinese and foreign counterparts. It is divided into three chapters to conduct a relatively in-depth research on the activities of foreign ethnic groups in the Central Plains and the Han Dynasty during the Tang Dynasty and the Hu-Han relations they reflected. It aims to explain the various appearances and causal connections of the multi-ethnic development trend in the Tang Dynasty, and then reflect the main theme of the society of that era.

"Zhao Zhengshu", a bamboo book of the Western Han Dynasty, begins with the death of Qin Shihuang and tells the story of Hu Hai's disobedience to Ziying and Li Si's advice, which led to his own death and the country's demise. It has received widespread attention because of its content involving the arrangements for the succession of Emperor Qin Shihuang when he was dying, the legitimacy of the second Emperor Qin's accession to the throne, and even the direct reasons for the overthrow of the Qin Empire. When Professor Xin Deyong read this bamboo book, he took the rise and fall of the Qin Dynasty as the general background and raised a series of questions that ordinary people are not aware of. Does the "Zhao Zheng" in "Zhao Zhengshu" refer to Qin Shihuang? "Zhao Zheng", "Zhao Zheng", "Qin Zheng", "Qin Zheng", "Ying Zheng", "First Emperor"... Which one was the name he used when he was alive? Why is it said that the title of the book "Zhao Zhengshu" (or the title of the chapter) is somewhat unrealistic? What is its origin and what are its characteristics? Although they clearly record the same historical event, why is it different between "Zhao Zhengshu" and "Historical Records"? Which of the two is more trustworthy? Did Qin Shihuang, who was infamous for his "burning books and entrapping Confucianism" throughout the ages, really hate all Confucian scholars and Confucianism in the world? And to some extent, the famous eunuch Zhao Gao, who determined the fate of the Qin Dynasty, was a "castrated person"?

At the same time, major historical events related to these women are interspersed with narratives, striving to witness the historical process of each dynasty from the side.

This book re-explores the Christian origins of the Taiping ideology from the perspective of the history of global missionary work of modern Western Christianity, revealing the close relationship between the Taiping Rebellion and millenarianism and eschatology, especially the relationship between Hong Xiuquan and apocalyptic theology, and Hong Rengan and the "Christian civilization view" of the Protestant missionaries. The book is divided into five chapters: "Religious Wars Caused by Religious Revolutions", "A Different Kind of Christianity", "The Taiping Rebellion and the Apocalypse", "Millennialism and Its Interpretation", and "A Modernization Plan for a Christian Country". Based on a large number of text contrasts, comparisons and analyses, this book refutes many popular views and puts forward new perspectives.

The issue of the origin of the Chinese state discussed in this book is the core link of exploring the origin of Chinese civilization, a major academic topic, and is of very important significance. China has a history of civilization of more than 5,000 years. However, when, where, and what process did the splendid Chinese civilization come into being? Many academic predecessors and masters of Chinese studies have discussed this issue. The author of this book adopts a multidisciplinary research method, extensively uses the theories of archeology, history, and anthropology, systematically organizes and analyzes archaeological discovery materials, attempts to integrate explanations of various ancient history legends handed down from ancient times, and proposes a series of innovative theoretical viewpoints, constructing a brand new ancient history research system. This masterpiece is a systematic display, further deepening and improvement of the academic systems proposed by the author in recent years, such as the "three-form evolution of settlements in the origin path of civilization and countries" theory, the "state-kingdom-empire" theory after entering the national society, and the theory of "the composite state structure in the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties".

The whole book closely focuses on the main themes of how to explore China's socialist road and build socialism with Chinese characteristics; how to develop socialist productive forces and strive to realize China's industrialization and modernization as soon as possible. Based on the "Resolution on Certain Historical Issues of the Party since the Founding of the People's Republic of China", it conducts an in-depth study of the more than 60 years of the People's Republic of China from its founding in 1949 to today, and explores its theory and practice, experience and lessons in socialist construction. The book reviews and summarizes the tortuous development of New China from a new perspective, and strives to describe important typical events as concretely as possible, so that readers can understand the glorious footprints of continuous exploration and innovation left by the Communist Party of China through "small windows".

This book examines the organizational form of the Kuomintang, explores its institutional structure and operating mechanism from within the Kuomintang, and conducts detailed discussions on the factional conflicts within the Kuomintang, the local operation of party affairs and party power, and the relationship between the party, the government, and the military. The core of the book is that the Kuomintang is a "weak authoritarian party" and the disorganized nature of its organization prevents it from realizing the one-party dictatorship of the Russian Communist Party, that is, it has the will to be authoritarian but not the power to authorize. The author points out that the Kuomintang has never been able to establish a party organizational system with tight permeability and strong cohesion, which is the main reason why it eventually lost power.

It publishes academic papers on Chinese studies and traditional Chinese culture studies, book reviews, notes, and academic trends.

The biggest problem in the study of the century-old Song Dynasty case is that researchers mistakenly equate "Song Dynasty case" with "Assassination of Song Dynasty case". This book completely corrects this deviation and clearly reveals that the "Song Case" is actually a complicated case caused by the sequential evolution and interweaving of multiple plots such as the appeasement of the Communist Party, the investigation of the welcoming Congress group, the manipulation of the drafting of the constitution, the frame-up of "Sun Huang Song", the "Anonymous" attack, the purchase of public bonds at low prices, and the assassination of Song Jiaoren. It uses extremely delicate research to thoroughly reveal the inner relationship between the seemingly unrelated plots, and finally convincingly unveils a series of mysteries of the Song case. About 90% of the materials in the book have not been used by previous researchers of Song Dynasty cases, and a considerable part of them have been made public for the first time.

The New Deal in the late Qing Dynasty was the third and final reform movement launched by the late Qing government after the Westernization Movement and the Reform Movement of 1898.

The Qing Dynasty ruled China for more than two hundred years, during which time there were almost constant battles both inside and outside the palace. Among the royal family, the establishment of the crown prince and the succession to the throne caused great ups and downs; among the courtiers, there was a great deal of competition for seeking superiority and personal gain; and there were also many intrigues among concubines and eunuch groups. All these constitute scenes of human tragedy and comedy. The fierceness of court battles in the Qing Dynasty, coupled with the mystery of alien races, added a strong and strange flavor to the palace coup. Historically, there have been only a few research monographs on this topic. The author of this book uses in-depth research, detailed analysis, and layer-by-layer presentation to show readers the strange cases, legends and changes in the Qing palace.

It distinctively combines the study of Manchu studies with the art of Peking Opera, and is highly innovative.

Revolution changes the political landscape of the world, changing countries, societies, families, and individuals. The tension of revolution, especially the communist revolution, gives this change an energy far beyond that of other political movements. This is the reason why revolution was once hailed like a pilgrim. However, whether it is a revolutionary event in a specific historical situation or a revolutionary movement in the overall scope, it is still subject to the constraints of historical and realistic circumstances. Revolution is a powerful tool for people to change their destiny under certain circumstances, but it is not a panacea that can cure all diseases. In the process of human civilization, revolution is even abnormal. Revolutions often come at the expense of breaking existing rules, and rules are an indispensable cornerstone for the formation, survival, and progress of human society. The conflicts displayed during them always remind people that behind the dazzling tension of revolution, there should and must be its own limits. Through the form of special research, this book explores a specific period with turning significance, cuts into the political, military, and social core of the Central Soviet Area, deepens the understanding of the history of the Soviet Area, and draws lessons from it.

Since the beginning of the 21st century, the Chinese government and relevant organizations have launched the "China Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection Project" and the "Chinese National Folk Cultural Heritage Rescue Project" respectively. The protection of intangible cultural heritage has become a major event in the history of China in the 21st century. However, due to the lag in theoretical research, many problems have arisen in our protection work, some of which have even seriously affected the quality and process of intangible cultural heritage protection. To this end, we have specially written a theoretical book on intangible cultural heritage in the form of questions and answers for cadres on the front line of intangible cultural heritage protection - "A Must-Read for Cadres in the Protection of Intangible Cultural Heritage". This book attempts to use the most popular form to tell stories about intangible cultural heritage. The most basic academic theories and knowledge, principles and concepts of cultural heritage, as well as the problems and countermeasures that arise in the process of declaration, inheritance and protection of intangible cultural heritage, are told to every intangible cultural heritage protection worker, so as to make our contribution to the protection of intangible cultural heritage in China.

The study of the history of the Taiping Rebellion has achieved fruitful results, but now every step forward requires great efforts. This book attempts to examine the Taiping Rebellion in the context of the entire modern Chinese society from the perspective of multi-party interactions. It not only traces the political, military, and economic conditions of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom period from a social perspective; it also focuses on the social dynamics at that time and the ideological characteristics of Hong Xiuquan and others, covering issues that are confusing and controversial in the history of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom; it also examines the countermeasures of the Qing court as its opponent, the ups and downs of officialdom and people's livelihood conditions, and its impact on late Qing society. New writing on old topics, well-founded remarks, and new ideas will undoubtedly vigorously promote the study of the history of the late Qing Dynasty and the Taiping Rebellion.

The February 28th Incident was a movement by the Taiwanese people to pursue provincial political reform in the early days of independence. Influenced by the rising democratic movement in the mainland, the main demands were to implement local autonomy in Taiwan at an early date, directly elect county mayors, change the chief executive's office into a provincial government, abolish the monopoly bureau and trade bureau, share political power and economic interests, and build their own hometown. The methods of struggle include peaceful negotiations, requiring the authorities to accept reform demands, and the military police and citizens working together to maintain local security. Armed resistance has emerged in some areas of central and southern China. From a nationwide perspective, it is an integral part of the postwar national democratic movement; from a perspective of Taiwan's unique development history, it is a continuation of the Taiwanese elite's demand for autonomy during the Japanese occupation. The February 28 Incident was a spontaneous movement of love for the land and hometown of the Taiwanese people. It was a conflict between the government and the people and class opposition, rather than a provincial conflict or ethnic conflict. This book uses rich and detailed information to reproduce the historical scene of February 28th.

"Wu Ping Scenery" is one of them. This book mainly uses an encyclopedic-style objective writing method to collect Wuping's geographical environment, natural resources, social economy, customs, historical evolution and other knowledge into one volume, so that readers, especially teenagers, can scientifically understand and understand Wuping in an all-round and multi-angle manner.

In the decades after 1949, the writing of modern Chinese history by domestic historians was basically equivalent to the writing of the history of the Chinese revolution. This is largely due to the fact that revolution is indeed the main theme of modern Chinese history and an important code that dominates the development of the entire modern Chinese history. Today, when we have bid farewell to revolution, as historical researchers, we cannot simply give up, forget or deny those concepts that we have been obsessed with for a long time. We must ask, how were those revolutionary discourses and revolutionary political culture that have long been molded into our ideological values ​​​​constructed? How did it evolve? This is where the thinking in this book begins.

It allows ordinary readers to not only understand Chinese history, but also have a clearer understanding of what happened in the world at the same time.

In economics, as a social science, all empirical facts, especially living people and events, are abstracted and turned into disembodied facts or even figures, leaving a large number of topics that need to be implemented and enriched in historical scenes. History deals with living people and events. This book attempts to dialogue with classical economics and new institutional economics through vivid people and events, and deeply discusses the specific behaviors and activities of people required for the market to move from abstract logical formation to concrete operation, such as how to obtain market information, how groups or organizations operate, how potential markets can be developed into actual markets under the price mechanism, how to reduce transaction costs, and other factors, thereby substantially enriching and adjusting some conclusions of economic market formation theory.

The National Assembly, or the House of Representatives, is the main embodiment of democratic politics in the organizational form of political power. In the late Qing Dynasty, with the efforts of the government and the opposition, a comprehensive reform plan was basically formed to prepare for the establishment of a constitution. The nature, authority, and relationship between the National Assembly and the responsible cabinet were also clearly defined in order to move towards this goal and embody the basic spirit of the constitution. This book objectively describes this major historical process with rich historical materials, and is of high readability and historical value.
