  • Conceptualizing the Blue Frontier: the Great Qing and the Maritime World
    Conceptualizing the Blue Frontier: The Great Qing and the Maritime World in the Long Eighteenth Century Inauguraldissertation zur Erlangung der Doktorwürde der Philosophischen Fakultüt der Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg Vorgelegt von Chung-yam PO Erstgutachter: Prof. Dr. Harald Fuess Zweitgutachter: Prof. Dr. Joachim Kurtz Datum: 28 June 2013 Table of Contents Abstract 2 Acknowledgments 3 Emperors of the Qing Dynasty 5 Map of China Coast 6 Introduction 7 Chapter 1 Setting the Scene 43 Chapter 2 Modeling the Sea Space 62 Chapter 3 The Dragon Navy 109 Chapter 4 Maritime Customs Office 160 Chapter 5 Writing the Waves 210 Conclusion 247 Glossary 255 Bibliography 257 1 Abstract Most previous scholarship has asserted that the Qing Empire neglected the sea and underestimated the worldwide rise of Western powers in the long eighteenth century. By the time the British crushed the Chinese navy in the so-called Opium Wars, the country and its government were in a state of shock and incapable of quickly catching-up with Western Europe. In contrast with such a narrative, this dissertation shows that the Great Qing was in fact far more aware of global trends than has been commonly assumed. Against the backdrop of the long eighteenth century, the author explores the fundamental historical notions of the Chinese maritime world as a conceptual divide between an inner and an outer sea, whereby administrators, merchants, and intellectuals paid close and intense attention to coastal seawaters. Drawing on archival sources from China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, and the West, the author argues that the connection between the Great Qing and the maritime world was complex and sophisticated.

  • The Diary of a Manchu Soldier in Seventeenth-Century China: “My
    THE DIARY OF A MANCHU SOLDIER IN SEVENTEENTH-CENTURY CHINA The Manchu conquest of China inaugurated one of the most successful and long-living dynasties in Chinese history: the Qing (1644–1911). The wars fought by the Manchus to invade China and consolidate the power of the Qing imperial house spanned over many decades through most of the seventeenth century. This book provides the first Western translation of the diary of Dzengmeo, a young Manchu officer, and recounts the events of the War of the Three Feudatories (1673–1682), fought mostly in southwestern China and widely regarded as the most serious internal military challenge faced by the Manchus before the Taiping rebellion (1851–1864). The author’s participation in the campaign provides the close-up, emotional perspective on what it meant to be in combat, while also providing a rare window into the overall organization of the Qing army, and new data in key areas of military history such as combat, armament, logistics, rank relations, and military culture. The diary represents a fine and rare example of Manchu personal writing, and shows how critical the development of Manchu studies can be for our knowledge of China’s early modern history. Nicola Di Cosmo joined the Institute for Advanced Study, School of Historical Studies, in 2003 as the Luce Foundation Professor in East Asian Studies. He is the author of Ancient China and Its Enemies (Cambridge University Press, 2002) and his research interests are in Mongol and Manchu studies and Sino-Inner Asian relations. ROUTLEDGE STUDIES

  • Autarky and the Rise and Fall of Piracy in Ming China  JAMES KAI-SING KUNG and CHICHENG MA
    Autarky and the Rise and Fall of Piracy in Ming China JAMES KAI-SING KUNG AND CHICHENG MA We examine the impact of rigorous trade suppression during 1550–1567 on the sharp rise of piracy in this period of Ming China. By analyzing a uniquely constructed historical data set, we find that the enforcement of a “sea (trade) ban” policy led to a rise in pirate attacks that was 1.3 times greater among the coastal prefectures more suitable for silk manufactures—our proxy for greater trade potential. Our study illuminates the conflicts in which China subsequently engaged with the Western powers, conflicts that eventually resulted in the forced abandonment of its long upheld autarkic principle. iracy was rampant in China between 1550 and 1567, during which Ptime the number of pirate attacks topped 30 each year. This followed nearly two centuries when piracy had been rare with about one incident a year.1 In these two difficult decades, the Chinese pirates stationed mainly on islands off the southeast coasts raided more than two-thirds of all coastal prefectures and occupied a third of them.2 Chinese pirates plundered silk and other popular export items, in the process kidnapping, and even killing were common affairs (So 1975; Geiss 1978; Wills 1979).3 The attacks were severe; they produced The Journal of Economic History, Vol. 74, No. 2 (June 2014). © The Economic History Association.

Restoring an international and multidisciplinary academic dialogue through cross cultural perspectives, these publications underscore the significance of diverse lines of evidence, including sea routes, ship cargo, shipwreck, seaports landscape, maritime heritage, nautical technology and the role of indigenous peoples. They explore a broad range of outstanding work to highlight various aspects of the historical Four Oceans sailing routes in Asia-Pacific navigation, as well as their prehistoric antecedents, offering a challenging but highly distinctive contribution to a better understanding of global maritime history. The series is intended for scholars and students in the fields of archaeology, history, anthropology, ethnology, economics, sociology, and political science, as well as nautical technicians and oceanic scientists who are interested in the prehistoric and historical seascape and marine livelihood, navigation and nautical techniques, the maritime silk road and overseas trade, maritime cultural dissemination and oceanic immigration in eastern and southeastern Asia and the Pacific region.

In the previous article, the author pointed out that the succession states of the Mongol Empire, assuming this world empire to be a common base, formed several empires including the Ming Empire. First, to understand the context in which Wako appeared, I will present three(macro, mesoscopic, micro) dimensions of the situation. 1.The macro (Eurasian) dimension. The Ming dynasty returned to trade with silver from the Mongol Empire, though this was always denied by the Ming dynasty. It coincided with the significant change of policy. In 1570, the leader of nomadic herders, Altan Qayan, would conclude peace and start trade with the Ming dynasty. This trade, called »Horse Fair,« was the new »shore« trade after the relaxation of the Sea Ban. 2.The mesoscopic (East Asian) dimension. Japan needed to develop its economy and resolve its financial difficulties through trade with China.

  • News Fall 2015
    FALL 2015 NEWSLETTER Mary Gallagher LRCCS Director Dear Colleagues and Friends, 2014-2015 was our first full year as a newly named and endowed Center. It was a successful year with many new initiatives and programs underway. We welcomed our first Lieberthal-Rogel Distinguished Visitor, Alexa Lam, this spring. Ms. Lam had just stepped down as the Deputy Chief Executive Officer of the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission. Lam spoke at several events on campus and also guest lectured in classes at the Michigan Law School and Ross School of Business. As an expert in the financial integration of Hong Kong and the mainland, as well as a native Hong Konger, she had special insight into the current challenges of the financial system of the PRC and the political status of Hong Kong. We are excited to continue this program next year with other visitors. In our first call for applications for the Center’s new one-year post-doctoral fellowship, we received over 160 applications. The admissions and fellowship committee made three offers to outstanding candidates in Chinese legal history, anthropology, and modern Chinese culture, Glenn Tiffert, Yasmin Cho, and Laurence Coderre. They are introduced in this newsletter. We are so excited to begin this new program bringing outstanding new graduates in Chinese studies to the University of Michigan, continuing our long tradition of excellence. We also welcome another postdoctoral fellow, Sonya Ozbey, who will serve as the Tang Junyi Postdoctoral Fellowship in Chinese Philosophy, a fellowship that is generously endowed by Don and Ann Munro. The Center continues to develop collaborations with universities in China.
