It is based on extensive original research by scholars using the methodology of historical anthropology, an approach that has transformed the study of Chinese history by approaching the subject from the bottom up. Its nine chapters, each based on a different region of China, examine the nature of Ming military institutions and how they interacted with local social life over time. Several chapters consider the distinctive role of imperial institutions in frontier areas and how they interacted with and affected non-Han ethnic groups and ethnic identity. Others discuss the long-term legacy of Ming military institutions, especially across the dynastic divide from Ming to Qing (1644-1912) and the implications of this for understanding more fully the nature of the Qing rule. 651 0 $a China $x History $y Ming dynasty, 1368-1644. 651 0 $a China $x History, Military $y 960-1644. 651 0 $a China $x Social conditions $y 960-1644. 650 7 $a Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 651 7 $a China. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 648 7 $a 960-1644 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Military history. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411630 700 1 $a Szonyi, Michael, $e editor. 700 1 $a Zhao, Shiyu, $e editor. 700 1 $a Wing-Lun, Joel, $e translator. 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781000283266 830 0 $a Historical anthropology of Chinese society series ; $v 7. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317024035.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AD262FE6CF3111EB9A1890BA3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
