Abstract

Entre 1550 et la fin du XIXe siècle, la Chine connaît un modèle économique autochtone unique. Au croisement de l'histoire, de la géographie et de l'économie, l'auteur en dévoile le fonctionnement et les logiques. Alors que les empereurs limitent l'accumulation de richesses et de capital, institutions économiques, réseaux marchands et échanges prospèrent selon des modes familiaux et claniques. ©Electre 2022

Abstract

"Tea War studies the competition between the tea industries of China and colonial India as an exploration of the history of capitalism. Liu challenges previous histories premised on the technical "divergence" between the West and the Rest, arguing that seemingly traditional technologies and practices were central to modern capitalist development in the tea districts of China and India. He explains how the pressures of competition compelled merchants in China to adopt abstract, industrial conceptions of time, while in India colonial capitalists pushed for labor indenture laws to support factory-style tea plantations. He also explains how characterizations of China and colonial India as premodern backwaters were themselves the historical result of new notions of political economy adopted by Chinese and Indian nationalists, who discovered that these abstract ideas corresponded to the concrete social changes in their local surroundings. Together, these stories point toward more flexible and globally oriented conceptualizations of capitalism"--

Abstract

This book, originally published in 2002, argues that the Mongol invasion of the thirteenth century precipitated a transformation of marriage and property law in China that deprived women of their property rights and reduced their legal and economic autonomy. It describes how after a period during which women's property rights were steadily improving, and laws and practices affecting marriage and property were moving away from Confucian ideals, the Mongol occupation created a new constellation of property and gender relations that persisted to the end of the imperial era. It shows how the Mongol-Yüan rule in China ironically created the conditions for radical changes in the law, which for the first time brought it into line with the goals of Learning the Way Confucians and which curtailed women's financial and personal autonomy. The book evaluates the Mongol invasion and its influence on Chinese law and society.
