近代中国手工业的转轨——以广西植物油制造业为例(1860～1949年)

THE SWITCH FROM HANDICRAFT TO EARLY INDUSTRY IN MODERN CHINA--With Guangxi's Plant Oil Industry as an Example (1860-1949)

近代中国手工业向早期工业的转轨是学术界争论不休的问题。中国疆域的辽阔决定了在从传统向现代转轨途径的多样性和复杂性。广西植物油制造业在这一转轨进程中表现出自己的特点,主要是生产技术与生产规模没有取得根本突破、产品过度依赖国际市场,造成植物油制造业没有发展并逐渐式微。广西工业发展道路的独特性丰富了中国经济史研究的内容。

It has been a controversial topic in the academic circle concerning the switch from handicraft to early industry in modern China. China's vast territory determined the variety and complexity in the way to switch from the tradition to the modernization. The production of plant oil in Guangxi had its own peculiarity in this switch. That is, there was no fundamental breakthrough in terms of the production technology and scale and the product transaction depended on the international market, which lead to underdevelopment and stagnancy in the production of plant oil in Guangxi. The peculiarity of the industrial growth in Guangxi has enriched the contents in the studies of the history of China's economy.
