清末蒙古地区禁烟活动探微

The Opium Suppression Movement in the Mongolian Area in Late Qing Dynasty

清末边陲地区禁烟活动属全国禁烟活动的特殊区域,随着全国禁烟运动的高涨蒙藏地区也被卷入。与内地一样,这些地区的禁烟活动并不理想,且因其特殊的边陲地理位置,更使这些地区的禁烟活动显得更为"荒唐"。初期各处采取"以捐代禁"做法,后来虽在清廷严令下进行查禁,但又因蒙汉杂居、职权不明,给彻底查禁带来困难,导致许多地方至清政权彻底崩溃前仍未禁绝,相反却成为民国时期全国烟毒的泛滥之源。

In late Qing Dynasty when the nationwide opium suppression movement reached a climax, border areas were also involved, such as Tibetan and Mongolian areas. However, due to their far-flung status as well as the ＂absurd＂ measures, the movement did not achieve the desired results. For all the efforts by the Qing government and owing to the bad performance of relative departments, opium was still being traded before the fall of the Qing government and became the source of opium in the periods of the Republic.
