Compiling and Analysis of the records of local revolts in Chinese history by researchers in Japan, China and Taiwan

本研究与三代以来从事中国地方起义研究的二十余位学者合作，主要工作是对封建王朝时期发生在府、州、县、土、都、李、嘉等地方社会的起义进行详尽的整理和分析。通过对地方起义的研究，我们发现地方起义的几个历史特点与中国历史的特殊性有关：地方起义的反复爆发具有特定的地域性，边疆在改朝换代过程中发挥着独立的作用，地方起义的主体是从事漕运的人等多个阶层，地方起义的发生具有特定的地域性，地方起义的发生具有特定的地域性。未来将采用田野调查的方法来调查地方起义故事的流传过程。

This study was collaborated with above twenty researchers over three generations who began studying about Chinese local revolts, and the main works were the exhaustive compiling and analysis of the records of revolts through the imperial period which broke out in local society such as fu, zhou, xian, tu, du, li, jia etc.. Through this research, we presented several historical characteristics of local revolts concerned with the particularity of Chinese history : some specific regions where revolts broke out recurrently ; the borderlands playing the independent role in the process of changing dynasties ; various classes of people such as those engaged in water transportation ; the method of fieldwork expected in the future for investigating the process of handing down the stories about local revolts.
