Chinese and Foreign Governmental Officials and Peace in Southeast: A Study on the Record of Peace in Southeast written by Zhao Fengchang

20世紀初,義和團運動在華北興起,與之同時,東南各省與西方列强訂約互保,基本維持了長江流域的和平局面。在這個重要的歷史事件中,"上海中外官紳"(廣義上包括江浙地區)羣體表現異常活躍。這一羣體究竟扮演了何種角色?在何種層面上發揮了作用?在他們背後又有何種推動的力量?本文擬對此進行全面考證,並對相關的重要文獻即趙鳳昌所撰《庚子拳禍東南互保之紀實》作必要的箋釋,力圖在東南地方歷史變遷的背景下,探討突發事件中各色人物的行爲軌迹和心路歷程,爲理解晚清歷史作一有益的注腳。
