Abstract

This article argues on the basis of internal and external evidence that chapter 15 "Attracting the people" (Lai min) was written by a follower of Shang Yang in the later years of King Zhao of Qin (r. 306-251 BCE). While the idea of attracting immigrants can be traced back to Shang Yang himself, the article dates the chapter seventy-eight years after his death (i.e., after the end of Changping campaign, 260 BCE).
