This volume comprises twelve papers written by Chinese scholars on
various aspects of the history of ancient Chinese economic thought.
The contributions are preceded by an introduction which gives an
overview of the development of the subject of history of economic
thought in China, and which also provides an historical context to
the individuals who constitute the major "schools" of ancient
Chinese economic thought. The authors of the papers are leading
scholars who have dominated this research area since the founding
of New China in 1949, while the broad range of topics covered by
the contributions includes questions of methodology, detailed and
sometimes controversial interpretations of texts and "schools", and
the international influence and modern relevance of ancient Chinese
thought. A recurrent theme is that ancient Chinese thought has at
least as much to offer to the historian as ancient Western thought.
As the first such volume of papers to be translated into English,
this collection provides a unique opportunity for non-Chinese
readers to sample the way in which Chinese historians of economics
have attempted to understand their own intellectual heritage. This
book will be relevant to scholars interested in the history of
economic thought, economic history and Chinese studies.
