摘要

This work is a study of various aspects of the Eastern Zhou concept of “acquiring people.” The hypothesis is that people were the most valuable resource during this period of constant warfare, growth and consolidation, and inter-lineage struggle. From the seventh century B.C., the scale of warfare increased dramatically, placing enormous burdens on states to field and feed larger armies, as well as engage in massive public works and defensive construction. To achieve these goals, states needed wealth and soldiers. The source of both was a large, settled, governable populace. States needed new ways to extract more resources from the land and populace they already held, and ways to increase their holdings and number of subjects. More people meant more farmers working the land to feed armies, more families paying taxes to pay for outfitting these armies, more couples producing sons to provide corvee labor and serve as conscripts. In short, human capital was the source of a state's wealth and strength.; Acquiring, settling, and employing larger and larger numbers of people required many new policies and institutions, ranging from grain relief and famine control measures to new forms of social organization and procedures for registering the population that aided mobilization for war. Behind these new political tools was an emerging ideology that categorized all such state activities into the Civil and the Martial, the wen and wu. These two spheres were inseparable halves of the Eastern Zhou political dynamic. By the fourth century B.C. the Civil and Martial were understood to alternate, the Martial being employed to subjugate unruly enemies, the Civil then being applied to settle and rule them. Such a conception represents a highly developed understanding of the coercive and psychological means of acquiring people, securing their loyalty, and employing them to the benefit of the state.
