严复作为清末向西方寻求救国救民真理的代表人物之一,提出了解决中国摆脱贫困问题应当优先发展路矿的思想,并对在中国兴办路矿的具体问题进行了整体构想。国内学界研究严复思想的较多,但专门研究严复路矿思想的较少。本文从分析严复路矿思想的主要内容入手,探讨了其思想形成的历史背景,并对严复的路矿思想进行了客观评价。

Yan Fu, one of representatives who learned from the west to seek the truth of saving the nation and the people in late Qing Dynasty, put forward the view of priority development of the mining industry, and carried on whole speculation for the concrete problem of establishing railroad and mine in China. Many domestic scholars have studied Yan Fu＇s thinking, but seldom studied Yah Fu＇ s thinking of the railroad and the mines. This paper attempts to discuss the historical background for the formation of Yan Fu＇ s thinking of the railroad and the mines based on the analysis of the main contents of the thinking,and tries to objectively evaluate his thinking .
