Description

Explore the deep connections between local structures and imperial agendas in this scholarly work by Mingming Wang. Part of the UCL Institute of Archaeology Critical Cultural Heritage Series, this book offers a study of long-term historical anthropology and broad social theory. Through a detailed examination of the southern Chinese city of Quangzhou, Wang traces a millennium of history. The narrative follows the city from its status as a major international trading entrepot in the 13th century through its transition to a peripheral regional center by the end of the 19th century. This research provides a unique look at how regional dynamics and imperial goals shaped historical trajectories over several centuries and dynasties. It is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in Chinese history, urban development, and social theory.
