Linda Cooke Johnson is Associate Professor in the Department of History at Michigan State University. She is the author of The Great Scheme for Commercial Intercourse: The Chinese, the British, and the Opening of Shanghai, and The Creation of a Pre-Colonial Port City: Shanghai 1730-1850.
This book examines cities of the Jiangnan region of south-central China between the twelfth and nineteenth centuries, an area considered to be the model of a successfully developing regional economy. The six studies focus on the urban centers of Suzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, and Shanghai.
Emphasizing the regional focus, the authors explore the interconnections and sequential relationships between these major cities and analyze common themes such as the development of handicraft industry, transport and commerce, class structure, ethnic diversity and internal immigration, and the social and political pressures generated by developments in manufacturing, taxes, and government politics. The book provides a valuable resource on commercial development and internal economic and social development in pre-modern China, particularly on specific regional development and the historical role of traditional Chinese cities.

評分这本书是和其英文版对照着读的。译者显然下过功夫,在footnote里考证引文出处这一点就很难得。可惜译者对某些中国研究专家的英文名不熟,比如Ray Huang,Phillip Huang,至于把John K. Fairbank[费正清]翻译成约翰•费尔班克斯就有些过分。不过总体而言还是不错,至少没有出...

還是從經濟角度考慮更多的城市史個案研究,前言裏討論的region概念有點意思。
