Utilising the exceptionally rich sources that survive from Huizhou in southeast China, McDermott traces how the major institutions of village life changed in this region from around 900 to 1600, providing a detailed analysis of pre-modern Chinese agricultural production, lineage and land management, village religious institutions, and the evolution of economic networks.
