China's rise as the world's second-largest economy surely is the
most dramatic development in the global economy since the year
2000. But China's prominence in the global economy is hardly new.
Since 500 BCE, a dynamic market economy and the establishment of an
enduring imperial state fostered precocious economic growth. Yet
Chinese society and government featured distinctive institutions
that generated unique patterns of economic development. The six
chapters of Part I of this volume trace the forms of livelihood,
organization of production and exchange, the role of the state in
economic development, the evolution of market institutions, and the
emergence of trans-Eurasian trade from antiquity to 1000 CE. Part
II, in twelve thematic chapters, spans the late imperial period
from 1000 to 1800 and surveys diverse fields of economic history,
including environment, demography, rural and urban development,
factor markets, law, money, finance, philosophy, political economy,
foreign trade, human capital, and living standards.
