Description

Explore the deep connection between order and governance in this scholarly work by Richard J. Smith. Published by Routledge, Mapping China and Managing the World examines how the concept of zhi has shaped Chinese civilization from the Qin dynasty to the present day. This book looks at how this preoccupation with order appears in bureaucratic institutions, social organization, and economic methods. Readers will find a detailed look at how Chinese philosophy, religious rituals, and secular traditions contribute to a comprehensive system of classification. The text covers how human achievements and both natural and supernatural phenomena were organized throughout late imperial times. This volume is part of the Asia's Transformations/Critical Asian Scholarship series, making it a valuable resource for those studying social and cultural history.
