A Comparative Study of Mercantilim in the Late Qing Dynasty in China and in the West

The emergence of mercantilist ideas in modern China and that in the West are historically inevitable.

However, owing to the differences in the internal and external conditions as well as culture between the east and the west, differences exist in both contents and focuses. Such associations and differences are exactly what should be identified through comparison and analysis by employing historical materialism dialectics.
