19至20世纪初沙俄政府与私人合作的失败

The Failure of Cooperation between Russian Tsarist Government and Businessmen from the 19^(th) Century to the Beginning of the 20^(th) Century

19至20世纪初,模仿西欧国家的方式,俄国政府与商人多次合作进行跨乌拉尔运河修建项目,但最终都以失败告终。究其原因在于双方存在信任危机:国家不完整的工业政策、官僚的贪腐现象及对商人的轻视,政府对商人贸易垄断的顾虑等都对合作起到了消极作用。商人在屡次经历政府失信后,对政府不再信任。此外,商人内部的利益分歧与相互欺骗也增加了合作难度。这些注定了国家与私人合作关系的破裂以及运河项目的最终失败。

From the 19^(th) century to the beginning of 20^(th) century, Russian government has followed the step of west European countries and formed partnership relationship with businessmen in the construction of navigation canals. The multiple cooperation in the construction project of Ural canal resulted in failure. The ultimate reason lay in the crisis of confidence between the two parties. Incomplete economic industrial policies, corruption of bureaucrats, contemptuous attitude towards businessmen and concerns towards merchants' trade monopoly all had negative effect in cooperation. Businessmen insisted to distrust the government after experiencing the dishonesty of government for several times. Besides, the internal interest discrepancy and deceits among businessmen also increased the difficulties for cooperation, which destined the rupture of partnership relationship between country and individuals and the failure of canal project.
