Volume 9, Part 2 of The Cambridge History of China is the second of
two volumes which together explore the political, social and
economic developments of the Ch'ing Empire during the seventeenth
and eighteenth centuries prior to the arrival of Western military
power. Across fifteen chapters, a team of leading historians
explore how the eighteenth century's greatest contiguous empire in
terms of geographical size, population, wealth, cultural
production, political order and military domination peaked and then
began to unravel. The book sheds new light on the changing systems
deployed under the Ch'ing dynasty to govern its large, multi-ethnic
Empire and surveys the dynasty's complex relations with
neighbouring states and Europe. In this compelling and
authoritative account of a significant era of early modern Chinese
history, the volume illustrates the ever-changing nature of the
Ch'ing Empire, and provides context for the unforeseeable
challenges that the nineteenth century would bring.
