Description
The many regional insurgencies and the unrest in Chinas borderlands at the very end of the eighteenth and in the early nineteenth centuries are regarded by scholars as evidence of government disability and the incipient decline of the imperial Qing dynasty. This book, based on extensive original research, argues that, on the contrary, the response of the imperial government went well beyond pacification and reconstruction, and demonstrates that the imperial political culture was dynamic, innovative and capable of moving with the times. Overall, the book shows that the Qing regime had sustained vigour, albeit in difficult and changing circumstances.
