Turchin Peter and Sergey A. Nefedov
Secular Cycles (ISBN:978-0691136967)
8vo, cloth in dj 346 pages.20x6.40x1.20 inches.65 line illus. 62 tables. Many historical processes exhibit recurrent patterns of change. Century-long periods of population expansion come before long periods of stagnation and decline; the dynamics of prices mirror population oscillations; and, states go through strong expansionist phases followed by periods of state failure, endemic sociopolitical instability, and territorial loss. Peter Turchin and Sergey Nefedov explore the dynamics and causal connections between such demographic, economic, and political variables in agrarian societies and offer detailed explanations for these long-term oscillations - what the authors call secular cycles. "Secular Cycles" elaborates and expands upon the demographic-structural theory first advanced by Jack Goldstone, which provides an explanation of long-term oscillations. This book tests that theory's specific and quantitative predictions by tracing the dynamics of population numbers, prices and real wages, elite numbers and incomes, state finances, and sociopolitical instability. Turchin and Nefedov study societies in England, France, and Russia during the medieval and early modern periods, and look back at the Roman Republic and Empire. Incorporating theoretical and quantitative history, the authors examine a specific model of historical change and, more generally, investigate the utility of the dynamical systems approach in historical applications. An indispensable and groundbreaking resource for a wide variety of social scientists, "Secular Cycles" will interest practitioners of economic history, historical sociology, complexity studies, and demography.

Ulving, Tor
Dictionary of Old and Middle Chinese. Bernhard Karlgren's "Grammata Serica Recensa" Alphabetically Arranged (= Orientalia Gothoburgensia, Volume 11).
Göteborg, Acta Universitatis Gothoburgensis, 1997. 397 S., 1 Blatt Missprints. Orig.-Broschur. "This work presents in the form of an alphabetical dictionary the Old and Middle Chinese word material reconstructed by B. Karlgren and contained in his epoch-making work Grammata Serica, 1940, reissued in considerably revised form in 1957. Owing to the arrangement of the words in Karlgren's book according to script form and not to sounds, it is not possible from it to obtain a coherent view of the Old Chinese vocabulary. In the present work an attempt is made to create such a possibility by listing in alphabetical order the 8398 Old Chinese, i. e. pre-Han, words found in GSR, and thus also facilitating comparison with more recent reconstructions of Old and Middle Chinese. It has not been possible to include Chinese characters in the body of the book, but two character indexes to a certain extent make up for this" (Author's abstract, included in the book). Mit kleinem chinesischem Stempel, sonst schönes, gut erhaltenes Exemplar mit nur leichten Gebrauchsspuren.
