AB - During the late 17th century, the local society of Joseon was experiencing rapid socio-economical changes after wars with Japan and Ching China. The central government introduced systems to tighten control over the local government. The representative one was the Provincial Kukwandangsang(八道句管堂上) of Bibyunsa(備邊司) that was expanded to the supreme administrative organization from a military organization.
The system of the Provincial Kukwandangsang was first introduced in 1713, but practically it functioned from 1731 for the countrywide relief-work and it became the control tower over the local government since then. The Provincial Kukwandangsang supervised chief administrators(守令) who was the front-line agent of central government and was in charge of the local administration : assessment of the rate of the failure of crop, relief-work, reform of military service, etc. Especially the administration of relief-work was the most important task in the middle of 18th century.
On the one hand, owing to this system it was possible to have the expertise for the local administration and on the other hand King Youngjo's political ideal of ruling the whole country by the absolute power of a king could come true.
