Description

Explore the evolution of Chinese business through Cambridge University Press's historical study of the Huizhou prefecture. This volume examines how regional merchant groups emerged from village lineages between 1500 and 1700. It provides a detailed look at the relationship between family institutions, government structures, and the growth of commercial enterprises in late imperial China. Readers will learn about the specific strategies used by these merchants to manage major financial transactions and commodity markets. By building on findings regarding village institutions, this book explains how these groups overcame significant obstacles to dominate trade across much of China during this period.
