Bridging the collapse of the Confucian state and the establishment
of the People's Republic of China, the period 1911-49 is
particularly fascinating to historians, anthropologists,
sociologists and political scientists. Unfortunately, it is also a
very confusing period, full of shifts and changes in economic,
social, and political organizations. The social implications of
these changes, and the relationships between officials on the
subdistrict level, the unofficial leaders, and the bulk of the
peasantry remain inadequately known. South China, which nurtured
the Communist Party in its formative years, is a particularly
interesting case. In this study I use the Kuan lineage of
K'ai-p'ing as a case study to show the effects of demographic,
economic, administrative, and educational changes after the Treaty
of Nanking (1842) on patrilineal kinship as a principle of social
organization in South China. [vii]
