Huang Zongxi's Law[3] (simplified Chinese: 黄宗羲定律; traditional Chinese: 黃宗羲定律), or Theory of Huang Zongxi,[4] is an observation made by Huang Zongxi (1610-1695) on how the burden of the peasants often increased rather than decreased during the various dynasties in Chinese history when attempts were made to reduce it.[5] This theorem was summarized[6] and named by the Chinese historian Qin Hui.[7]
Qin Hui summarized Huang Zongxi's criticism of China's tax reforms of the past dynasties, exposing their shortcomings of the "the ill of steady accumulation" (积累莫返之害) as the "Huang Zongxi Theorem".[8]
