• W2001754828 abstract "Reviews 173 contributions included in the volume, and, as mentioned, the inclusion of the historico-philosophical sketch as a chapter is at odds with the general continuity ofthe volume. While this may be a small point, there is a great disparity in length in terms of one ofthe contributions (chapter 5) in comparison to the others. Its length, in fact, makes its inclusion questionable. Some ofthese problems point up the difficulty ofconstructing a book from contributed conference papers. More importantly, since it appears that much of the comparative philosophical analysis in the volume is carried out from the perspective oflinguistic philosophy, this represents too narrow a focus for philosophy —but, then, this reflects the situation ofboth philosophy and Chinese studies in the contemporaryworld. On the other hand, there is definitely some individual insights and occasionally a literary flair in certain chapters, and for this alone the book is well worth reading. Not the least important virtue of the book is that Anglo-American scholars are given the opportunity to become acquainted with German scholarship and the detailed knowledge that European scholars possess ofboth classical Greek philosophy and ofAnglo-American analytic philosophy—and, by implication , the relative insularity and narrowness ofAnglo-American scholars. Epistemologica ! Issues in Classical Chinese Philosophy is an auspicious beginning to a dialogue between European and Anglo-American scholars in their treatments of Chinese studies, and it is a tribute to Hans Lenk and Gregor Paul that one of the first contributions to the dialogue originates from the European side and at the same time is written in the English language. Robert E. Allinson The Chinese University of Hong Kong Jane Kate Leonard and John R. Watt, editors. To Achieve Security and Wealth: The QingImperial State and the Economy, 1644-1911. Cornell East Asia Series. Ithaca, New York: East Asia Program, Cornell University, 1992. xii, 189 pp. Reflecting on recent studies of the Chinese economy during the Qing dynasty (1644-1911), one might say that there are two decidedly different approaches currently at work. The first approach concentrates on large structural issues that bear on economic growth, such as demographic trends, price movements, market development, and the like. Some authors writing in this vein are committed copyright1994to exploringwhether or not China was on apositive or negative path to modern by Universityofdevelopment prior to Western and Japanese incursions in the nineteenth and Hawai'i Pressearly twentieth centuries. The second approach, older and better established 174 China Review International: Vol. ?, No. ?, Spring 1994 among China specialists, is to look at institutional factors as they relate to economic activity and performance. Issues within this second approach include such things as state tax policy, merchant behavior and organization, and the activities ofvarious government bureaus and associated quasi-governmental agencies devoted to monitoring and/or promoting economic activity. For the most part, at least oflate, such studies seem purposely to skirt the issue ofwhether China was on a positive or negative developmental path. When they broach this subject at all, they do it primarily by implication, suggesting that, by and large, the Qing state created a favorable environment through which individuals, both in public and private roles, could pursue positive economic goals. To Achieve Security and Wealth is a multiauthored volume that follows the second approach described here, albeit with some insightful and important new twists. It is the product of a conference held in February 1991 at the University of Akron, and brings together a set of fresh and informative specialized essays on various aspects of Qing policy toward the economy. Before proceeding to their collective and individual content, it is important to point out the speed with which this volume has appeared. The editors should be commended for preserving the currency of their contributors' work while at the same time providing high production standards and well-written prose. The book contains nine chapters, eight ofwhich are individually authored essays covering diverse topics. The first chapter is an editors' introduction that lays out in very brief, schematic terms the overarching concerns of the book and the topics of the rest of the chapters. For this reader's taste, the introductory chapter is a bit too brief, providing only the sketchiest of thematic..." @default.
