从《淡水准造社船往来厦蚶各口贸易》看清政府对台管控措施

The Thought about the Qing Government's Control Measures to Taiwan from the Text of Danshui Approves of Building Social Ships to Trade at Each Port between Xiamen and Hanjiang

嘉庆年间闽台两地经济上的互补性、人员流动、沿海宗族械斗事件、洋匪频繁袭扰等社会状况使当时台湾民众产生了迫切希望开通淡水与厦门、蚶江对渡的愿望。清政府为了巩固对台的管控与调和社会矛盾也在不断地调适政策。在《淡水准造社船往来厦蚶各口贸易》这则禀文中,就包含了当时清政府对台湾航海贸易、置办船只出海、社会治安及大陆移民台湾等事项的管理措施,为了解当时台湾社会状况提供了依据。

In Jiaqing Period of the Qing Dynasty, some social situations such as economic complement, labor turnover, fierce confliction among different clans along the sea, the frequent attacks of the foreign bandits between Fujian and Taiwan forced Taiwan Residents majority to have a strong desire to open sailing between Danshui, Xiamen and Han Jiang. In order to consolidate the control over Taiwan and reconcile social contradictions, the Qing government constantly adjusted the policies.The text of Danshui Approves of Building Social Ships to Trade at Each Port between Xiamen and Hanjiang includes the management measurements of the Qing government on several related matters in Taiwan, such as Taiwan’s maritime trade, purchasing ships to go to the sea, social security and China's Mainland’s immigration to Taiwan, which provides the basis for the understanding of the Taiwan social situations at that time.
