Description

This scholarly work examines the Shanxi piaohao, private financiers from China's interior regions who fundamentally shaped late imperial economic history. The book develops an original theory of Chinese hinterland capitalism by analysing how these financial institutions and family enterprises drove the transformation of China's markets from an agrarian empire toward a modern nation state. By focusing on the expansionist activities of Shanxi piaohao between 1720 and 1910, the author deepens understanding of capitalist dynamics operating within late imperial China's families and financial systems. This volume contributes significantly to economic history scholarship by centring the lived experiences and social worlds of key historical actors, offering fresh perspectives on how regional financiers influenced China's transition to modernity and reshaped trade networks across the nation.
