講題大綱/概述
Lectures Outline / Synopses:

中國歷代政府以賭博傷風敗俗,視之為罪惡淵藪。厲行禁絕。十九世紀六十年代以降,隨著歷史現實的改變,清政府逐步重估其賭禁政策。就財政重要性而言,賭博稅為清末廣東省財政結構中一項不可或缺的財源。賭博一方面給廣東帶來可觀的稅入,另一方面也引發出很多社會問題。演講以期間廣東賭博的經營形態、實際運作及盛衰消長為中心,藉此具體而微的反映時代的政治社會特色。更重要的,是希望以過去因文獻不足而鮮為學者重視的清末廣東的賭商作切入點,將零星片段的史實貫串起來,重建一個略為完整的歷史面相,彌補中國近代商人研究這領域中的一個重要空缺,俾有助於進一步體認清季官商之間的實質互動關係。

講題大綱/概述
Lectures Outline / Synopses:

Over the past four decades, China has experienced spectacular growth, unmatched in the economic history. This performance is all the more remarkable given the size, the complexity of the country and the initial situation of China when the "reform and opening-up" policy was launched by Deng Xiaoping in 1978.

Economic history teaches us, however, that no country, during the phase of catching up with the most developed countries, escapes at one time or another from a more or less important crisis. What are the reasons for this different trajectory of China compared to other developing countries? Can China continue to experience a stable growth in the medium term without an economic crisis? What are the different types of economic crisis that developing countries normally encounter in economic history and what are the factors that traditionally trigger an economic crisis? Is China entering a phase of its economic development more conducive to the emergence of a crisis?

In the light of economic history, economic theories of development, and especially by analysing the specificities of the economic and political trajectory of contemporary China, the conference will attempt to provide answers to these questions.
