Among the various dual- or multi-capital systems adopted by most major Chinese dynasties, the two-capital system of the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) was the most elaborate. Unlike the auxiliary capitals of other dynasties, whose bureaucratic apparatuses were incomparable with those of the primary capitals, the auxiliary Southern Capital of the Ming had an exactly identical administration with the same structure of power and bureaucratic agencies, as that possessed by the primary Northern Capital. This dissertation explores the rationale of the Ming state in maintaining the Southern Capital as well as the political, financial, and military functions of the auxiliary capital administration.

520 $a Among the various dual- or multi-capital systems adopted by most major Chinese dynasties, the two-capital system of the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) was the most elaborate. Unlike the auxiliary capitals of other dynasties, whose bureaucratic apparatuses were incomparable with those of the primary capitals, the auxiliary Southern Capital of the Ming had an exactly identical administration with the same structure of power and bureaucratic agencies, as that possessed by the primary Northern Capital. This dissertation explores the rationale of the Ming state in maintaining the Southern Capital as well as the political, financial, and military functions of the auxiliary capital administration.
520 $a The dissertation consists of five chapters. Chapter One probes the early historical origins of the Chinese auxiliary capital system and reviews the various auxiliary capitals in imperial China. Chapter Two discusses the bureaucratic apparatuses of the Southern Capital administration and their major responsibilities. The remaining three chapters analyze respectively the political, financial, and military functions of the Southern Capital administration. Based on the discussion of the preceding chapters, the dissertation concludes that the immense geographical expanse of the Chinese empire and the insufficient communications infrastructure of pre-modern times necessitated the establishment of an additional capital administration for an effective control of the realm. The existence of the Southern Capital of Ming China, which previously scholars have regarded as redundant and insignificant, was largely justified by its ability to assist the primary capital to control better the southern part of the imperial realm. The practice of establishing auxiliary capitals, as the Ming case testifies, was a workable way of effecting bureaucratic control over a vast territory under pre-modern conditions.
