  • 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.

  • By Cao Cunxin
    Introduction On a cold December night in Quedlinburg, Germany, in 1589, thirty-two women were burnt at the stake, accused of possessing mysterious powers that enabled them to perform evil deeds. Thousands of people were similarly persecuted between the fifteenth and the seventeenth centuries.1 However, this event was not unique, as fifty years earlier on a rainy night in August, 1549, ninety-seven maritime merchants were beheaded on the coast of Zhejiang 浙江 province for violation of the Ming maritime prohibition. In addition, 117,000 coastal people were immediately ban- ished from their homes to prevent them from going to sea. Thousands of Chinese and foreign merchants lost their lives in the subsequent military campaigns in support of the maritime interdiction. 2 If historians were asked to list the early modern phenomena that have most „disturbed‟ their academic rationale, the two centuries-long witch-hunt in early modern Europe (1500–1700) and the 200 year term of the maritime prohibition, or “hajin 海禁” (1372–1568), during the Ming dynasty (1368––1644) would probably be near the top of the list. For the past few centuries, scholars have debated vigorously the two phenomena and tried to iden- tify the factors that led to their formation, maintenance and eventual change. While the study of the witch-hunt has generated a degree of consensus, there are still many questions surrounding the Ming maritime prohibition. The maritime prohibition policy, introduced in 1371 by the newly enthroned Ming founder, the Hongwu Emperor 洪武 (r. 1368–1398), was institutionalised to maintain systematic control over foreign contact and foreign trade relations.

This study is concerned with the influx of foreign silver coins, the spread of their circulation in the Chinese territory, their fulfillment of the monetary functions, and the circulation patterns of the currency in different provinces. China, as a nation, had neither an integrated economy nor a uniform monetary system. When dealing with the Chinese monetary system in whatever temporal or spatial contexts, the regional variations should always be kept in mind. The structure of individual regional monetary market is closely related to the distinct regional demand for metallic currencies, the features of regional economies, the attitudes of local governments toward certain kinds of currencies, the proclivities of local people to metallic money of certain conditions, etc.

  • 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.

Degree awarded March 2017 ii © 2017 Simeng Hua iii THESIS ABSTRACT Simeng Hua Master of Arts Department of History March 2017 Title: Through Their Neighbors’ Eyes: Interactions and Relations between Korea, Japan and China during the Ming-Qing Transition In the period from the sixteenth century to the eighteenth century, East Asia witnessed changes in the Chinese tribute system, the downfall of the Ming Dynasty, the Manchu invasion of Korea, the establishment of the Tokugawa bakufu in Japan, and the prosperity of the High Qing era. This extraordinary period disrupted the existing China- centered diplomatic system; however, at the same time, a fertile ground was created for new perceptions of the respective immediate neighbor for each individual state. In the struggle to achieve or maintain domestic and external stability, intellectuals, officials, and even commoners reflected on ways to express their individual and communal narratives that contributed to their nation’s history.

  • From Haijin to Kaihai : the Jiajing Court’S Search for a Modus Operandi Along the South-Eastern Coast (1522-1567) 1
    Journal of the British Association for Chinese Studies , Vol. 2 July 2013 ISSN 2048-0601 © British Association for Chinese Studies From Haijin to Kaihai : The Jiajing Court’s Search for a Modus Operandi along the South-eastern Coast (1522-1567) 1 Ivy Maria Lim Nanyang Technological University Abstract This paper examines the 1567 change in Ming dynasty prohibition on maritime trade against the backdrop of increasing wokou or Japanese piracy along the coast at that time. While the current interpretation argues that the 1567 policy change was a capitulation to littoral demands by the state, I argue that the adoption of a kaihai (open seas) policy was the outcome of the Jiajing court’s incremental approach towards resolution of the wokou crisis and the permitting, albeit limited, of private trade along the coast. In this search for a modus operandi , littoral demands featured less prominently than the court’s final acceptance of reality on the coast on its own terms. Keywords: Ming dynasty, maritime policy, haijin , wokou Introduction Mid-sixteenth century Ming China experienced what might be described as an all-out anti-wokou (Japanese pirate) campaign along the south-eastern coast.2 Not only did this campaign necessitate the commitment of manpower and resources against the wokou in the provinces of Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong, it also forced a recalibration of long-standing policies culminating in the relaxation of the haijin (maritime prohibition) in 1567. 1 The author would like to thank the editors and the two anonymous reviewers for their critiques and suggestions of this paper. All errors remain my own.
