Following the Opium War, China's integration into the capitalist world market triggered profound social changes, with Shanghai emerging as a hub of modernisation. This study investigates how merchants in treaty-port Shanghai (1843–1949) harnessed linguistic capital to achieve social mobility and transform commercial networks.
