再看1875年德法战争危机

Another Comment on "War-in-Sight" Crisis in 1875 between France and Germany

法国在普法战争中的失败使法国失去了昔日的欧洲霸主地位。随着法国民族复仇主义情绪的高涨和经济、军事等实力的日益增强,俾斯麦日益担心法国的再次崛起,因此,孤立法国以免其东山再起就成为其执政时期德国的基本外交路线。与此同时,出于对德意志帝国的过分强大以致可能破坏欧洲均势的考虑,欧洲其它列强也有自己的考虑。1875年德法战争危机就是在这一时代背景下产生的。

The defeat of France in France-Germany War and the treaty of Frankfurt which was signed with Germany made France lose its hegemony in Europe. With the massive upsurge of national revanchist sentiment and the enhancement of economic and military power in France, Bismarck worried that the re-rise of France could threaten the safety and strength of Germany increasingly. Therefore, isolating France in order to prevent it from staging a comeback became the fundamental diplomatic route during his term of ofrice. At the same time, other European countries also had their own considerations about the balance of power in Europe. They also worried that the excessive power of Germany could destroy this situation which was the background of the ＂war-in-sight＂ crisis in 1875 between France and Germany.
