Studies on the Expenditure Sources of Qing Dynasty Local Records Compilation

清代国家对地方志编纂经费无财政支出,一般多由地方官府筹措。地方志修纂事关地方文化建设,地方官绅对捐资的表现有主动捐资、劝捐、摊派式的强捐三种形式。其中后两种捐资方式,一方面让更多的人了解了地方志编纂工作,另一方面也导致了修志原则的某些改变。

In the Qing Dynasty the state had no financial expenditure on local records compilation which was in general raised by local governments. Local records compilation is concerned with local cultural construction, and fund raising on the part of the local gentry took three forms: active donations, persuasive donations, and forced donations in the style of apportion. The later two forms of donations on the one hand allowed local records compilation work to be understood by more people, while on the other hand led to certain changes in local records compilation principles.
