北魏均田制与土地兼并问题再探
Revisting the Issue of System of Land Equalization and Land Annexation in Northern Wei Dynasty
並列摘要
The system of land equalization in Northern Wei Dynasty contains two-sideness, namely the equalization within the same class and the unequal division of land between classes, which reflected the importance of status to land ownership in the context of power, and is also a reflection of the system in which land is owned at multiple levels. One of the results is that it has led to the legal appropriation of large tracts of land while at the same time inhibiting land annexation to a certain extent. Condemnation of land annexation has historically been regarded as political correctness and has often led to praise for the system of land equalization. In fact, the implementation of the system of land equalization has, on the one hand, accommodated the continuation of the phenomenon of direct or indirect appropriation of large tracts of land backed by power in China, and, on the other hand, impeded the optimal allocation of resources through the flow of factors of production and increased the cost of administrative operations. As a result, the system of land equalization was a system with a very low cost-effectiveness ratio, and it can be seen that some of the so-called "landlords" were often just a status attached to a position of power.
