Park Ki-soo et al.: Modern and Contemporary Development of Chinese Commercial Practices

Volume 3 of the *Studies on Modern China*, *The Modern and Contemporary Development of Chinese Commercial Practices*. It appears that previous papers on information within commerce during the Ming and Qing dynasties have been merely preliminary in nature, failing to empirically discuss, through concrete historical sources, how merchants acquired information in the market and the nature of that information. This book examines commercial practices—such as how merchants acquired information during transactions and built credit—by utilizing so-called commercial treatises, novels, local gazetteers, and genealogies published in large numbers during the late Ming period.
