Abstract
As used in this paper, the term (移徒) ”migration” refers to the kind of planned population movements that the Chinese government has repeatedly imposed upon the people since the Chou Dynasty. During the Hung-wu and Yung-lo periods of the Ming Dynasty, forced migration ,of this type was practised on a massive scale which, in terms of frequency and the number of People involved, was unprecedented in Chinese history. It contributed a great deal to the economic recovery and social consolidation of the early Ming Empire. This paper is an attempt to investigate the migration policies of the Hung-wu and Yung-lo periods in terms of background, purpose and actual effect.
