Wang Anshi
The New Policies (), also known as Xining Reform (熙宁变法), Xifeng Reform (熙丰变法) or Wang Anshi Reform (王安石变法), were a series of reforms initiated by the Northern Song dynasty politician Wang Anshi when he served as minister under Emperor Shenzong from 1069–1076. The policies were in force until the emperor's death, then repealed, then enacted again and were a focus of court politics until the end of the Northern Song. In some ways, it continued the policies of the aborted Qingli Reforms from two decades earlier.
