In the first detailed history in English, Yi Wang explores how processes of commercial expansion, land reclamation, and Catholic proselytism transformed the Mongol frontier long before it was officially colonized and incorporated into the Chinese state. Wang reconstructs the socioeconomic, cultural, and administrative history of Inner Mongolia at a time of unprecedented Chinese expansion into its peripheries and China's integration into the global frameworks of capitalism and the nation-state. Introducing a peripheral and transregional dimension that links the local and regional processes to global ones, Wang places equal emphasis on broad macro-historical analysis and fine-grained micro-studies of particular regions and agents. She argues that border regions such as Inner Mongolia played a central role in China's transformation from a multiethnic empire to a modern nation-state, serving as fertile ground for economic and administrative experimentation. Drawing on a wide range of Chinese, Japanese, Mongolian, and European sources, Wang integrates the two major trends in current Chinese historiography-new Qing frontier history and migration history-in an important contribution to the history of Inner Asia, border studies, and migrations"--Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 265-299) and index. 505 0 $a A changing frontier : inner Mongolia in context -- Merchants, monetization, and networking : Han commercial expansion in the steppe -- Sojourning and settlement across Han-Mongol borders -- The rise of land merchants : irrigation, commercialization, and local autonomy in Hetao -- Cultivation for salvation : missionaries, migrants, and Catholic expansion -- Solidifying the frontier : official reclamation and state building. 648 7 $a 1644-1912 $2 fast 650 0 $a Migration, Internal $z Inner Mongolia. $z Inner Mongolia. 650 0 $a Borderlands $z China $x History. 650 0 $a Mongols $x Ethnic relations. 650 7 $a Borderlands. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01723579 650 7 $a Economic history. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00901974 650 7 $a Migration, Internal. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01020741 650 7 $a Qing Dynasty (China) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01696773 651 0 $a Inner Mongolia (China) $x History. 651 0 $a China $x History $y Qing dynasty, 1644-1912. 651 0 $a Inner Mongolia (China) $x Economic conditions. 651 7 $a China. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 651 7 $a China $z Inner Mongolia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01211883 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Wang, Yi, 1972 April 26- $t Transforming the borderland $d Lanham : Rowman & Littlefield, [2021] $z 9781538146088 $w (DLC) 2020054900 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117014024.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EF2667E2477411EC81CA9FE82DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
