ISBN: 9780691618821 出版年：2015 页码：371 Rozman, Gilbert Princeton University Press

Ch'ing china and tokugawa japan were unusually urbanized premodern societies where about one half of the world's urban population lived as late as 1800. Gilbert rozman has drawn on both sociology and history to develop original methods of illuminating the historical urbanization of china and japan and to provide a way of relating urban patterns to other characteristics of social structure in premodern societies. The author also hopes to redirect the analysis of premodern societies into areas where china and japan can be compared with each other and with other large scale societies.
