本文的目的是探討《淮南子》中的「治道」問題，共分九部分。緒論部分的主要目的在於：闡述先秦西漢的「治道」思想；給予《淮南子》中的「治道」思想以思想史意義上的定位；闡述《淮南子》的語境中哪些概念或問題與「治道」有關，並簡述它們之間的聯繫；簡述本文所運用的唐君毅《哲學概論》中的四種方法論思維：「純理的推演法」、「比較法」、「超越的反省法」、「批判法」。第一章乃是對《淮南子》一書基本情況的簡介，以及對《淮南子》政治哲學相關研究文獻的批評。接下來的第二章至第六章分別探討與「治道」問題有關的五個方面：「適情」、「無爲」、禍福問題、儒學問題、「制禮」問題。第七章借鑑《淮南子》中的「治道」思想，對牟宗三與徐復觀的「治道」觀進行反思。最後一章（第八章）一方面是總結本文的寫作線索和思路，另一方面是藉助關於胡適、《淮南子》、蔣介石的史實，指出《淮南子》中的「治道」的部分思想在近現代仍具影響。This dissertation attempts to explore "the Dao of the rulership" in the Huainanzi. It consists of an introduction and eight chapters. The introduction offers an account of the concept of "the Dao of the rulership" in the Chinese intellectual history in the Pre-Qin period and the Western Han Dynasty. Chapter I offers a literature review of important works in the Huainanzi scholarship related to the topic. Chapters II to VI cover five sub-topics regarding "the Dao of the rulership" as shown in the Huainanzi, which includes emotion, non-action, the dialectic of fortune and misfortune, Confucian rulership, and rituals of governance. Chapter VII gives a critical reflection of the ideas of rulership offered by New Confucian scholars represented by Mou Zongsan and Xu Fuguan. Chapter VIII, the last chapter, offers a summary; it also discusses rulership in the Huainanzi in terms of its modern relevance. Methodologically speaking, the research adopts the fourfold method of textual analysis mentioned by Tang Junyi, namely, theoretical and analytical extrapolation, comparison, transcendental reflection, and critical assessment.

Until recently, the majority of the studies of the intellectual history of late imperial China have interpreted Ch'ing dynasty scholarship in relation to the consolidation of Manchu political power and increased imperial authoritarianism in all areas of intellectual and cultural life. This study extends recent interpretations of the "internal" history of Ming-Ch'ing thought into the historical studies movement of the eighteenth century. It examines some of the earlier assumptions about the nature and functions of Ch'ing historiography to argue that eighteenth century historians, by concentrating on the textual problems in the standard histories, were consciously continuing statecraft commitments of their seventeenth century predecessors to a restored polity and public policy decisions based on historical texts. Without denying the real growth of the power and authority of the imperial institution in the Ming-Ch'ing period, this study further argues that it was in the nature of the traditional polity that the emperior play an important role in historical studies, dating to the Imperial Seminars of the Sung dynasty. In the eighteenth century not only did the emperor influence historians and their interpretation of the past; he also provided opportunities in the sponsorship of imperially commissioned works. The example of imperial patronage set the fashion of semi-official patronage of scholars, expanding the area of academic employment, and scholars moved freely between official, semi-official and private historical writing. Thus historiographic influences flowed in both directions from private historians to historian-officials and back again. This study recognizes the need for a quantitative examination of private scholarly activity in the Ming-Ch'ing period to support, deny or balance the "external" thesis that historical studies were distorted by Ch'ing authoritarianism and the "internal" one presented here. However, by summarizing the historiography of a broad range of presently well-known historians and closely examining the work of one historian, Chao I (1727-1814), this study has given specificity to the paradigmatic interpretations of "internalist" intellectual historians. Chao I's treatment of unofficial histories and the standard histories in the Nien-erh shi cha-chi are examined, together with several essays on institutional history. In form and content, they support the theses set forth in this dissertation.

This thesis is concerned with distributive politics arising from land development and territorial changes in reform China. It adopts a historical institutionalist approach in examining the evolution of rural institutions, with a specific focus on the rural shareholding cooperative and the village joint stock company. It argues that despite the move towards the market in the reform era, core elements of the state socialist redistributive economy imposed upon rural society in the Maoist era have been sustained and reproduced in the two reform-era institutions. The re-collectivisation of the village through the shareholding reform has provided the institutional foundations for the continued deployment of redistributive power and the reproduction of paternalistic relations that generate expectations of the fulfilment of an implicit social contract. This thesis argues that while the reforms have helped to hold the village together in the midst of drastic territorial change, the very operation of the institutions may be generating endogenous pressures for change as they heighten propensity of power abuse and produce unequal distributive outcomes. These internal contradictions were exacerbated by the checun gaizhi reform, which abolished grassroots organisations of self-governance and created semi-private entities, which by their straddled nature were not subjected to any effective mechanisms of checks and balances. This privatisation of rural governance has profound implications on rural outcomes. By comparing and contrasting the divergent trajectories undertaken by three villages that shared similar characteristics, this thesis sheds light on some of the deeply problematic aspects of rural governance in contemporary China.
