Dynamics of Disintegration: The Later Han Empire (25-220CE) & Its Northwestern Frontier Abstract As a frontier region of the Qin-Han (221BCE-220CE) empire, the northwest was a new territory to the Chinese realm. Until the Later Han (25-220CE) times, some portions of the northwestern region had only been part of imperial soil for one hundred years. Its coalescence into the Chinese empire was a product of long-term expansion and conquest, which arguably defined the egionr 's military nature. Furthermore, in the harsh natural environment of the region, only tough people could survive, and unsurprisingly, the region fostered vigorous warriors. Mixed culture and multi-ethnicity featured prominently in this highly militarized frontier society, which contrasted sharply with the imperial center that promoted unified cultural values and stood in the way of a greater degree of transregional integration. As this project shows, it was the northwesterners who went through a process of political peripheralization during the Later Han times played a harbinger role of the disintegration of the empire and eventually led to the breakdown of the early imperial system in Chinese history. -

Abstract: In business-to-government (B2G) markets, many firms rely on mergers and acquisitions (M&As) to fuel growth.

The Ideology and Significance of the Legalists School and the School Of
Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 351 4th International Conference on Modern Management, Education Technology and Social Science (MMETSS 2019) The Ideology and Significance of the Legalists School and the School of Diplomacy in the Warring States Period Chen Xirui The Affiliated High School to Hangzhou Normal University [email protected] Keywords: Warring States Period; Legalists; Strategists; Modern Economic and Political Activities Abstract: In the Warring States Period, the legalist theory was popular, and the style of reforming the country was permeated in the land of China. The Seven Warring States known as Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Wei and Zhao have successively changed their laws and set the foundation for the country. The national strength hovers between the valley and school’s doctrines have accelerated the historical process of the Great Unification. The legalists laid a political foundation for the big country, constructed a power framework and formulated a complete policy. On the rule of law, the strategist further opened the gap between the powers of the country. In other words, the rule of law has created conditions for the cross-border family to seek the country and the activity of the latter has intensified the pursuit of the former. This has sparked the civilization to have a depth and breadth thinking of that period, where the need of ideology and research are crucial and necessary. This article will specifically address the background of the legalists, the background of these two generations, their historical facts and major achievements as well as the research into the practical theory that was studies during that period. -

Chap. 18; and Sy- Mons 1981: 9–10
CHAPTER I THE MULTIVOCAL PRIMARY RECORD The sheer size of the extant record of the Ming-Qing conflict is historically significant. At some risk, let me begin not only with numbers but with crude ones: the selective bibliography of the best nongovernmental primary and contemporaneous secondary sources of the Ming-Qing conflict, exclusively defined in part two of this monograph (categories I and II), lists 199 Chinese works and collections as main or subsidiary items (leaving aside archival and inscriptional sources) for just the period 1644–1662 (nineteen years). Those were written or compiled by probably 170 different persons, giving 9.7 author-works per year. Let us first compare that with the extant record of the previous instance of long-term, widespread disruption in China, the Yuan-Ming transition, including not only the Ming expulsion of the Mongols but also the Chinese internecine wars that ended in victory for the Ming founder Zhu Yuanzhang 朱元璋, during a considerably longer period, 1355–1388 (thirty-four years). Privileging the Yuan-Ming record with inclusiveness, I still find only 17 nongovernmental works by 15 different authors (or .47 author-works per year).i Of course, the Yuan-Ming transition is three centuries more remote in time than that of Ming-to-Qing, so greater losses to the record are to be expected. On the other hand, writings from that earlier case were not subjected during Ming times to publication restrictions, prohibitions, and other state interferences to nearly the extent that was reached under Qing rule. The contrast is stark even when one considers that the population of China more than doubled from early-Ming to late-Ming and early-Qing times. -
