马戛尔尼使华期间中英双方心态研究

An Analysis of Sino-British Psychology during Marjiarney's Diplomatic Envoy to China

马戛尔尼使华期间 ,中英双方存在的冲突侧映出中英双方不同的心态。清廷的闭关政策虽对外国势力的对华扩张起到了一定的阻挡作用 ,但对中国的损害远大于对外国造成的不便。面对马戛尔尼使团的挑战 ,清廷以一种保守的心态回应 ,没有处理好稳定与发展的关系 ,而此时英人的心态却是积极主动的 ,决意打开中国市场的大门 。

During Marjiarney's Diplomatic Envoy to China, the Sino-British conflict was a reflection of different psychology between China and Britain. The Close-door Policy of Qing Dynasty resisted foreign powers' expansion to China to some degree, but the policy did more harms to China than it brought inconvenience to the foreign countries. Qing Dynasty failed to handle the relationship between stability and development, instead it conservatively responded to the challenge of Marjiarney's Diplomatic Envoy while the British psychology then was very active. They intended to open the door to Chinese Market and finally took aggressive actions.
