Description

Gain a deep understanding of late-Qing dynasty social structures with Conflict, Community, and the State in Late Imperial Sichuan. This scholarly work from the Routledge Studies in the Modern History of Asia series examines how local justice was shaped through everyday practices and dispute resolution. By looking at the routine role of violence in ordering and building communities, this book provides a unique perspective on how discipline functioned in historical Chinese society. The text relies on a rigorous analysis of over 350 legal cases drawn from the "cases of unnatural death" archival files in Ba County, Sichuan province, between 1890 and 1900. Readers will explore a wide range of historical records, including homicides, suicides, and found bodies. This study offers a detailed look at the muddled and petty disputes that defined local life, making it an essential resource for those studying the history of law, social order, and provincial China during the late imperial period.
