This dissertation is a study of maritime violence and its impact on in sixteenth-century South China. It examines how the imperial state and local communities vied with smuggling traders and coastal raiders for control of littoral space. Focusing on the bordering prefectures of Zhangzhou in southern Fujian and Chaozhou in eastern Guangdong, this study illuminates complex local and global causes of and responses to maritime predation. It argues these activities were subdued not through the traditional tactics of elimination and pacification but rather by collaboration between state and society to transform continental and maritime space from sites of trading-raiding into governed territory. It reveals a process of state-building from below derived from both the centralization and localization of violence control.During the mid-sixteenth century, the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) experienced unrest across its peripheral regions: Mongols raided in the north, indigenous peoples revolted in the southwest, and troops mutinied throughout the empire. Along the coast, maritime marauding exploded in between the late 1540s and the mid-1560s. Historians generally link the causes of the crises to contradictions between expanding global exchange, commercialization, and restrictive foreign trade policies. In turn, they argue these kinds of borderland disturbances subsided when troops were paid or restrictions on trade laxed, such as the opening of horse fairs in the north in 1571 and the authorizing of overseas trade in the south in 1567.Contrasting the imperial experience, illicit seaborne activities in Zhangzhou-Chaozhou emerged as a point of concern earlier and lasted later. Sitting at the confluence of sea routes linking northeast and southeast Asia, this littoral locality witnessed persistent smuggling trade and coastal raiding for a century from, at least, the 1480s to the 1580s. While the Ming state repeatedly conducted domestic and overseas military campaigns and offered amnesty to trader-raiders, three factors proved crucial to ending this local coastal crisis: 1) progressively adding new county administrations, 2) reorganizing provincial maritime defenses, and 3) establishing joint-prefectural control of the offshore island Nan'ao and its adjacent waters. Furthermore, beginning in the 1570s, tax revenue from the recently legalized maritime trade was used to fund this expanding infrastructure.
