조선후기 평안감영 재원의 성격과 물류의 추이

Abstract

This paper examines the nature of the resources and logistics of Pyeongan-do from the 17th to 18th centuries. Previous studies have taken a method of statistics of all quantities in rice or coins. However, it was difficult to identify the characteristics of each object. Therefore, this study expected that if we look at the trend by item, we can better show the characteristics of financial resources. It is better represented by the question of transport, or jurisdiction. The problem with transportation is to track how rice and cotton are moved among the resources of Pyeongan-do. Cotton was an easy item to bring to the central government from Pyeongan-do. It was mainly brought from the Pyeongan barracks. However, after the military reform, the government did not move to the center as no more wood was piled up. Rice was a very difficult item to transfer. Although it was occasionally moved for relief purposes, it was rarely moved due to difficulties in shipping. The issue of jurisdiction was the question of which government office had a old jurisdiction in terms of the late Joseon Dynasty. Even if it is under the control of Hojo, the execution of Hojo was not an easy problem because of the need to preserve it in Pyeongan-do. The land tax in Pyeongan-do was kept in Pyeongan-do for defense reasons. After all, when the financial problems of good standing arose, the Minister continued to demand repayment. When the governor of Pyeongan-do Province prepared a separate resource, Hojo insisted that even this should be secured from the center. Minister Hojo and the governor of Pyeongan-do were very strongly opposed over the jurisdiction of Pyeongan-dos financial resources. Minister Hojo claimed that he had the right to sell, and the governor of Pyeongan-do prevented it. King Yeongjo had no choice but to abide by the circumstances on this matter. Because both sides of the argument were reasonable. Finally, the issue of securing silver was addressed. Unlike other regions, it was silver that secured the most resources as a single item. No more silver came from trade with Japan. However, the Joseon government still needed a lot of silver. More silver was secured in peace than in central government. The reason is that I was purchasing in the mountains. These attempts were more advantageous to the Pyeongan province than to the central government. In order to examine the nature and trends of the Pyeongan Inspection Institute, the issue of natural disasters should also be dealt with beyond just understanding the flow of financial resources, but this paper did not. I would like to make it a later task.
