I suggest you refer to timothy brook's Confusion of Zongle.

Writing from the germination of capitalism in the middle of Ming Dynasty

Timothy Brooke's book is about choosing a small entrance.

He started with a short passage in the county annals of Shexian County, Anhui Province.

He wrote a county magistrate's view on social changes in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.

At that time, due to the development of free economy and capitalism,

Great changes have taken place in society, which once fell into a common problem in the period of change, and money worship became popular.

You mean the works of Huang Zongxi, Gu and Wang Fuzhi, three enlightenment thinkers in the late Ming Dynasty.

Then contact the enlightenment in Europe.

You can find that Europe and China are the first countries to see the budding of economic capitalism.

Correspondingly, there has also been ideological enlightenment.

Further expansion, we can sum up the inevitable relationship between economic development and political needs.

It's deep and wide.
