清初辽东招民授官例实施情况与存疑

Implementation of the Edict for Repopulation and Wasteland Cultivation of Liaodong During Early Qing Dynasty and relative doubts

顺治十年,清朝统治者为了充实辽沈区域人口,开垦废弃荒地而出台了名为"招民授官例"的鼓励政策,规定将一百人以上招至此地即授予知县官职。然而关于条例的实施,在辽沈地区的史料中唯有一处记载。而其他一些非此地区相关文献,如《大清会典》,关内各省地方志书等,则提供了有关辽沈地区各县知县来历与仕途的许多线索。在总结这些史料中的信息后,可分析出授官例的实际实施情况,并对其实施的规律性与严格性提出质疑。

In order to repopulate Southern Manchuria and restore its land economy,in 1653 Shunzhi Emperor of Qing dynasty issued the Edict for Repopulation and Wasteland Cultivation of Liaodong,which established the conferral of bureaucratic titles to whomever successfully summoned more than 100 people to the territory.Despite the importance of such a policy,though,only one case of implementation is accounted in local historical documents.Fortunately enough,other sources,such as Qing Huidian and annals from other provinces provide useful information about Liaodong＇s officials.Basing on these data,it is possible to analyze the application of the edict and raise doubts about its regularity and strictness.
