| Tiivistelmä: | This paper asks an old but still unsettled question: what makes China China? Existing theories rely on either class, or market or cultural causes to explain tne economic stagnation of imperical China. While accepting the basic proposition of the class based analysis, this paper adds a new component to the argument - the notion of effective competition. It establishes the vital role of effective competition on molding the development of China by contrasting the rapid transformation during the Ch'un Ch'iu and Warring States Periods (722 to 221 B.C.) with the economic stagnation of the Unification Period (221 B.C. to 1911 A.D.) |
