论穆斯林联盟的不干涉土邦政策

On the Non-interference Policy of Muslim League in the Princely States

印巴分治实际上包含两方面的领土划分:一是英属印度的分割,二是众多土邦的归属。无论《蒙巴顿宣言》,还是《印度独立法》都只对前者做出明确规定,而对后者却语焉不详、甚至有意回避。国大党和穆斯林联盟都希望把更多的领土划归各自的自治领。英属印度领土是英国殖民者按照宗教原则进行分割的,故两个自治领若想争取更多的领土,就只能在土邦的归属上展开争夺。对于土邦的归属问题,学者们多从国大党和英国殖民者的角度进行分析,而作为这一过程主要参与者之一的穆盟作用却没有得到应有的重视。本文主要研究穆盟的不干涉土邦政策及对土邦归属的影响,从而深化对土邦归属原因的认知和理解。

The partition of Indian and Pakistan was associated with two territorial settlements：the division of the British India and the accession of the erstwhile princely states to either India or Pakistan.But the ＂Indian Independence Act＂ has presented clear provisions for the former only and the vague provisions for the latter.Indian National Congress and Muslim League all expected more territory to their dominions.The British India is divided according to the principle of religion.Therefore if the two parties expected more territories,they must compete for the Princely States.Many scholars have analyzed the issue from the perspective of Indian National Congress and British colonists.However the Muslim League,as the one of the primary participants in the process,has not received adequate attention that they deserved.This paper studies the policy of ML and its influence,which deepened our cognition of the belonging of Princely States.
