Collected Essays on Imperial Qing Statecraft and its sequels represented<br />

mainly the thoughts of Chinese intellectuals, degree holders, and civil officers<br />

at the core, and to a lesser extent the private literati.<br />

Works of statecraft continued culminated in 1890s and faded out in 1902 due<br />

to the new press reform, which provided outlets for intellectuals at the<br />

periphery and general public. Discussions that until then had remained<br />

largely internal to the bureaucratic elite were now transformed into a<br />

broadly-based challenge to court politics and to the process of policy<br />

formation.<br />

However the cultural success of the domestic and foreign newspapers on a<br />

variety of discursive levels after 1900s would not have been possible without<br />

the conceptual integration of the writings—stemming from official,<br />

para-official or private literati milieus—in the established structures of<br />

discourse of the Ming and Qing works of statecraft.<br />

Increasingly collected essays of statecraft started to move away from (or even<br />

discard) the principle of rule of virtue in Confucian classics (Category A [A1,<br />

A2, A3] dropping from some 45% in 1776 version to 2.61% in 1902<br />

compilation), to embrace that of creation for political, economic and military<br />

power and wealth of state (Category G+H+I rising from 0% in 1776 to a<br />

1.48%<br />
