Abstract | Historians of the Qing need not be reminded of the debate turned quarrel between Evelyn Rawski and Ho Ping-ti in the mid-1990s. Rawski, one of several North American historians who had begun to shift her research focus towards the role of Manchu language and ethnicity in Qing history, wrote a presidential address for the Association of Asian Studies, summarizing some of the insights resulting from this new focus.1 Rawski argued that new findings would lead to a dramatically different understanding of Chinese history. To drive home her message, she singled out an article by Ho Ping-ti dating back to the 1960s as an example of the status quo that could no longer be supported. In the article, Ho had argued that much of the history of continental East Asia is defined by a process of acculturation of peoples in an ever shifting periphery to the Han Chinese majority, centered on the Central Plain. This idea is known as the sinicization (Hanhua 汉化) thesis. |
