20世纪30年代上海邮工增薪运动研究

Pay Rise Demanding Campaign of Shanghai Postal Workers in 1930s

20世纪30年代,国际市场金贵银贱导致中国物价上涨,上海邮务员工发起增薪运动。当局起初据理将其驳回,而邮务员工不眠不休向交通部施压,后经协商,邮工的请求在很大程度上得到满足,但其他关系到国家行政事务之要求被交通部婉拒。外界对邮工举动不以为然,更有人指责并表达厌恶。此次邮工运动有深刻的历史根源与现实诱因,反映了当时社会民众运动难以遏制的形势,亦展现了南京政府虽然势弱但在涉及到国家政策方面不轻易让步的一面。

In 1930 s,the high price of gold and low price of silver on international market resulted in the rising prices in China.Shanghai postal workers launched pay rise demanding campaign.The then government refuted it at first.But postal workers exerted endless pressure on the Ministry of Transportation.After consultation,their requests were met to a large extent,but those requests concerning state administration were declined by the Ministry of Transportation.People in other fields disagreed with the acts of the postal workers,and some people even blamed them and expressed their disgust.The postal workers movement had deep historical causes and realistic triggers,reflecting the situation where civil movements were hard to contain.It also revealed the fact that the Nanjing National Government did not yield easily when it came to national policies.
