科尔贝改革与近代法国海权的崛起

Colbert's Reform and the Rise of Modern French Sea Power

近代法国海权在科尔贝掌管法国海洋事务期间达到顶峰。为实现将法国建设成为世界海洋强国的战略目标,在沿用黎塞留时期所确立的相关体制机制和政策的基础上,科尔贝针对法国在海洋贸易、殖民地和海军等领域的发展中存在的诸多不足推行了一系列重要改革。科尔贝的改革有力地推动了法国海权在17世纪末的强势崛起,但是其中的部分弊端也为法国海权的长远发展带来了不利的影响。

The modern French sea power reached its zenith during Colbert＇s control of France＇s maritime affairs. In order to achieve the strategic goal of building France into a world maritime power,based on the relevant systems and mechanisms and policies established in the period of Richelieu,Colbert had implemented a series of important reforms against many of France＇s existing problems in the maritime trade, colonial and naval development fields. These reforms have effectively promoted the rise of France＇s sea power, but some drawbacks of them have also adversely affected the longterm development of the French sea power. Carding the relevant contents of Colbert＇s reform and objectively evaluating the value and influence objectively will not only help us deepen the exploration of the French maritime development path, but also provide China with historical experience and lessons in building maritime powerhouses.
