This dissertation assesses the impact of cross-border wars on the society of the borderland between China and Korea during China's political transition from the Ming to the Manchu Qing dynasty from 1592 to 1644. Focusing on the procurement and transport of military provisions across the Yalu River, this study examines the cross-border movement of goods, money, and people in times of war and investigates how the successive wars involving Korea's Choso&caron;n dynasty---from the Japanese invasions of Korea in the 1590s to the Manchu raids against Korea in the 1620s and 30s---shaped and were conditioned by the nature of local commerce and society in the border region between China and Korea.

520 $a This dissertation assesses the impact of cross-border wars on the society of the borderland between China and Korea during China's political transition from the Ming to the Manchu Qing dynasty from 1592 to 1644. Focusing on the procurement and transport of military provisions across the Yalu River, this study examines the cross-border movement of goods, money, and people in times of war and investigates how the successive wars involving Korea's Choso&caron;n dynasty---from the Japanese invasions of Korea in the 1590s to the Manchu raids against Korea in the 1620s and 30s---shaped and were conditioned by the nature of local commerce and society in the border region between China and Korea.
520 $a The existing scholarship on the Chinese-Korean relations of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries has viewed the Japanese invasion of Korea as a crucial turning point. Responding to the Choso&caron;n court's request for help to defend against Japanese aggression, China's Ming court dispatched expeditionary forces across the Yalu River, and their long-term presence in Choso&caron;n society necessitated an increased level of coordination between the governments of China and Korea. On a social level, the arrival of Ming soldiers also facilitated the cross-border movement of supplies and people during and in the wake of the Japanese invasion. Yet, previous studies have examined the Chinese-Korean relations during this period primarily from political and military perspectives, and their analysis has not fully considered the social and commercial fluidity across the Chinese-Korean borders.
520 $a Drawing on Chinese and Korean primary sources, this study investigates the social ramifications caused by the procurement and transport of military provisions in the Chinese-Korean borderland from the following five perspectives. First, it examines the experience of Ming quartermasters during the Japanese invasion of Korea and assesses the nature of challenges that they faced in the border region, including a difference in the media of exchange used in Ming China and Choso&caron;n Korea at the end of the sixteenth century. Second, it analyzes the involvement of Chinese merchants in the Ming's war effort in Korea and sheds light on ways in which merchants affected the Ming armies' military campaign and Korea's wartime society. Third, it investigates the wartime experience of Ming soldiers in Korea, including food shortages and epidemics, and examines how Ming commanders sought, with little success, to prevent friction between their soldiers and local residents in Korea. Fourth, we analyze climatic and topographical factors which affected the choice of transport methods during wartime in the border region between China and Korea. The transport of provisions was often hampered by the forces of nature, including weather patterns and terrain conditions. Finally, this study analyzes writings of the Ming official Mao Yuanyi, one of the most prolific writers on military logistics during the late Ming period. We examine his writings on the transport of provisions and assess advantages and disadvantages of various transport methods in the late Ming period. By analyzing the cross-border wars from the late sixteenth to early seventeenth centuries from these five perspectives, this study ultimately shows the manner in which the procurement and transport of military provisions profoundly disrupted the lives of local residents and their agricultural cycle and left an enduring impact on the society of the borderland between China and Korea.
