| Note | Daniel Little. " ... compares the positions of various social scientists regarding debates in China studies. [the author] focuses on four topics: the relative importance of individual rationality and community values in explaining traditional peasant behavior; the role of marketing and transportation systems in Chinese society; the causes of agricultural stagnation in traditional China; and the reasons for peasant rebellions in Qing China. He not only makes a constructive contribution to these controversies but also provides examples of the diversity of social science research." --back cover Bibliography: p. 301-315. Includes index. |
