The Qing Dynasty was the last dynasty in Chinese history, governing a vast territory and developing an effective fiscal and taxation system. Civil society also developed grassroots organizations capable of collaborating with the imperial structure. Yet, beneath the dynasty’s prosperity lay profound crises.
The Qing era has left abundant documentary and material evidence for research and discussion. Through lectures and discussions on key historical turning points and specific topics related to Qing political and social transformations, this course aims to explore fundamental questions in Qing historical studies.

Attention is drawn to University policy and regulations on honesty in academic work, and to the disciplinary guidelines and procedures applicable to breaches of such policy and regulations. Details may be found at http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/policy/academichonesty/.
With each assignment, students will be required to submit a signed declaration that they are aware of these policies, regulations, guidelines and procedures.
Assignments without the properly signed declaration will not be graded by teachers.
Only the final version of the assignment should be submitted via VeriGuide.
The submission of a piece of work, or a part of a piece of work, for more than one purpose (e.g. to satisfy the requirements in two different courses) without declaration to this effect shall be regarded as having committed undeclared multiple submissions. It is common and acceptable to reuse a turn of phrase or a sentence or two from one’s own work; but wholesale reuse is problematic. In any case, agreement from the course teacher(s) concerned should be obtained prior to the submission of the piece of work.
