In a brisk revisionist history, William Rowe challenges the standard narrative of Qing China as a decadent, inward-looking state that failed to keep pace with the modern West.

The Great Qing was the second major Chinese empire ruled by foreigners. Three strong Manchu emperors worked diligently to secure an alliance with the conquered Ming gentry, though many of their social edicts—especially the requirement that ethnic Han men wear queues—were fiercely resisted. As advocates of a “universal” empire, Qing rulers also achieved an enormous expansion of the Chinese realm over the course of three centuries, including the conquest and incorporation of Turkic and Tibetan peoples in the west, vast migration into the southwest, and the colonization of Taiwan.

Despite this geographic range and the accompanying social and economic complexity, the Qing ideal of “small government” worked well when outside threats were minimal. But the nineteenth-century Opium Wars forced China to become a player in a predatory international contest involving Western powers, while the devastating uprisings of the Taiping and Boxer rebellions signaled an urgent need for internal reform. Comprehensive state-mandated changes during the early twentieth century were not enough to hold back the nationalist tide of 1911, but they provided a new foundation for the Republican and Communist states that would follow.

This original, thought-provoking history of China’s last empire is a must-read for understanding the challenges facing China today.

开门见山,我发现了几个很有意思的点。 首先是“清朝自己也参与了帝国主义竞赛,而且至少在18世纪末前非常成功。在西方,历史学者已不再将中国描写成受害者或者一个特例,而是众多在大致上相同时期之亚欧大陆兴起的数个近代早期帝国之一”。毋庸置疑的,清朝奠定了近现代中国的...

在目前中国所有的历史课本上,划分古代史与近代史的界限是1840年的鸦片战争,包括很多研究机构的划分与安排也是遵从这个分界线的。这个分界线的来历是哈佛费正清教授的观点,被近代中国历史研究者认可,由于这种划分具备上佳的政治效果,因此很快就成为政治上正确的分界。一旦...

史学研究发展到今天,已经日益碎片化了。断代与断代、领域与领域之间,沟壑纵横。上世纪夏曾佑、钱穆、吕思勉等学者,还能在通读乙部要籍后,以一己之力纂写通史。如今即便是写比较全面的断代史,难度也越来越大。在新材料和新观念不断涌现、研究著作汗牛充栋的情况下,研究者...
