High quality porcelain, and coarser pottery for local use, were made throughout the Song and yuan periods. during this time, however, the workshops and kilns which produced the porcelain were scattered around Fuliang county and little if any was made in Jingdezhen itself, which functioned primarily as a market and as a government control point for official orders. during the Ming dynasty (1368–1644) the industry and Jingdezhen underwent radical changes. the quantity of porcelain produced increased dramatically and the quality was greatly improved. Jingdezhen was transformed from a market into an industrial center, so that by the end of the dynasty most kilns outside had closed down and production was concentrated in the town. although this process continued throughout the Ming dynasty, the period of most rapid change was in the sixteenth century in the reigns of the Jiajing (1522–66) and Wanli (1573–1620) emperors. a number of factors were involved in this transformation.

  • 2020 International Religious Freedom Report
    CHINA (INCLUDES TIBET, XINJIANG, HONG KONG, AND MACAU) 2020 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary Reports on Hong Kong, Macau, Tibet, and Xinjiang are appended at the end of this report. The constitution of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), which cites the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), states that citizens “enjoy freedom of religious belief” but limits protections for religious practice to “normal religious activities” without defining “normal.” CCP members and members of the armed forces are required to be atheists and are forbidden from engaging in religious practices. National law prohibits organizations or individuals from interfering with the state educational system for minors younger than the age of 18, effectively barring them from participating in most religious activities or receiving religious education. Some provinces have additional laws on minors’ participation in religious activities. The government continued to assert control over religion and restrict the activities and personal freedom of religious adherents that it perceived as threatening state or CCP interests, according to religious groups, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and international media reports. The government recognizes five official religions: Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, Protestantism, and Catholicism. Only religious groups belonging to one of the five state-sanctioned “patriotic religious associations” representing these religions are permitted to register with the government and officially permitted to hold worship services. There continued to be reports of deaths in custody and that the government tortured, physically abused, arrested, detained, sentenced to prison, subjected to forced indoctrination in CCP ideology, or harassed adherents of both registered and unregistered religious groups for activities related to their religious beliefs and practices.

  • The Layout of Power and Space in Jingdezhen Imperial
    HE LAYOUT OF POWER AND SPACE IN JINGDEZHEN TIMPERIAL FACTORY Jia Zhan Jingdezhen Ceramic Institute Jiangxi, China Keywords: Jingdezhen Imperial Factory, regulation of government building, techno- logical system, power-space 1. Introduction Space has social attribute, and the study of space in human geography gradually pro- ceeds from the exterior to the interior and eventually into the complicated structure of the society. The study of culture in geography no longer treats culture as the object of spatial be- havior, instead, it focuses on culture itself, exploring the function of space in constructing and shaping culture [1].The concentrated and introverted space of imperial power is typical of this function. In the centralized system of absolute monarchy, the emperor with arbitrary authority, controlled and supervised the whole nation and wield his unchecked power at will. The idea of spatial practice and representations of space proposed by Henri Lefebvre provides a good reference for the study of the above-mentioned issues, such as the material environment, allocation, organization and ways of representation of production [2].To study the production path and control mode of the landscape from the perspective of power, we can see that cul- ture is not only represented through landscape, but also shapes the landscape, they interact- ing with each other in a feedback loop [3].We can also understand the relationship between social environment and space of imperial power which starts from the emperor, moves down to the imperial court and then to the provinces. This method of social government is also reflected in the Imperial Factory, the center of imperial power in ceramics.

No. 2007-07JJD720043; No. NCET-07-0639. Abstract The rural market was an important constituent of marketing system, and formed an un-vertical congruent relationship with urban market in late imperial China. There were different types of rural fair in the imperial China. Xu, Chang, Ji, Dian, Shi, Hui, all of them were the regular fairs. Their number was huge. They distributed widely, played a distinct role, and became the base of rural market development. During Tang and Song dynasties, county seat, town or village had some regular fairs. They were more and more developed during Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. In the late imperial China, the establishment or abolishment of rural regular fair must been approved by local magistrate, such as magistrate of a county. Equally important, the clan and Gentleman played the crucial role in rural market. On the whole, the network of rural fairs began to take shape in the most regions from Qianlong to Daoguang reigning years of the Qing Dynasty. The professional markets in rural society included two kinds: professional town and professional fair. The emergence of professional markets in rural society was the inevitable result of enlargement of cash crops planting and development of social division of labor, and helped in the shaping of specialized region which centered on cash farming.
