Hao Peng is an associate professor in the Graduate School of Economics, Osaka City University. He was born and brought up in China. After getting his first master’s degree in the Graduate School of History, Fudan University, he went to Japan in the autumn of 2005 and continued to study the history of early modern Japan at the Graduate School of Humanities and Sociology, The University of Tokyo. There, he finished his second master’s degree in 2008, and then a doctoral degree in 2012. During the following 4 years, he continued his study at the Historiographical Institute, The University of Tokyo, first as a postdoctoral fellow of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science and then as a program-specific researcher. He has held his current position since the spring of 2016.
His research book based on his doctoral thesis was published in 2015 by The University of Tokyo Press. The title is Kinsei Nisshin Tsūshō Kankeishi (the history of the early modern trade relationship between Qing China and Tokugawa Japan). That book earned him the Nikkei Economic Book Culture Award (by the Nikkei Inc. and Japan Center for Economic Research) in 2015.
