| | Harvesting mountains: Fujian and the China tea trade, 1757-1937 | EconLit | JB |
| | 1994 | | Gardella, Robert | University of California Press |
| | Abstract: Examines the tea export trade in Southeast China from the beginning of the Canton trade |
| | system in 1757 to the onset of the Sino-Japanese War in 1937 and considers the long-term historical |
| | impact of world trade on China. Discusses tea production and export in mid-Qing Fujian, commercial |
| | capitalism, and the exploitation of the Minbei Uplands; the tea boom of 1842-88 in Fujian and Taiwan |
| | and whether extensive growth was accompanied by structural change; the wider implications of the |
| | tea boom, including demographic movements and urban growth, the impact on the money supply and |
| | fiscal policies of the region, and the environmental and social costs of the boom; the growing |
| | competition between China and its rivals--chiefly India and Ceylon, and secondarily Japan--for |
| | dominance in the world tea trade in the late nineteenth century; the diverse efforts of official and |
| | private agencies to make China tea more competitive on the international market from 1890 to the eve |
| | of World War II; and tea in the Fujian economy in the period from 1912 to 1937. Gardella is Professor of |
| | History at the United States Merchant Marine Academy. Bibliography; index. |

| | (The tea trade again. Fujian was a big player in the Tea trade, China's cash crop at the time. How did |
| | this affect the way that people lived in this province. Trade in the East was so big at the time yet I |
| | was barely taught anything about in high school. They explained the European side of the trade but |
| | nothing about the interaction between the countries in the East.) |
