This text addresses the corporate causes of the collapse of the
Qing Dynasty and the emergence of modern Republican China. Weaving
together political, legal and business histories, it focuses on the
key relationship between China, cement and corporations, and
demonstrates how the particular circumstances of cement
manufacturing in nineteenth- and early twentieth-century China
serve to illuminate key aspects of Chinese political economy and
illustrate the importance of legal frameworks in the emergence of
industrial enterprises. Examining the centrality of legal
personality in China's historical story, seen from the angle of
cement manufacturing corporations, it offers an alternative
historical perspective on the making of the modern Chinese States
and delves into the involvement of larger-than-life historical
figures of modern China such as Yuan Shikai, Chiang Kai-shek and
the revolutionary and the father of modern China, Sun Yat-sen, in
the unfolding of these events.
