试论近代国人边疆观的转变

On Changes of Modern Chinese Frontier Concept

近代以来随着科技的进步,边疆在经济、国防方面价值日益凸显,原本被视为"异域""绝地""殊方"的边疆逐渐被视为国家领土不可分割的一部分。通过法律规范、学校教育、政治宣传以及群众性的反帝爱国运动,边疆不可分割的观念在社会上广泛传播,为广大民众尤其是知识分子所接受,这也是20世纪30-40年代的中国出现大量边疆研究成果的深层次原因。

With the development of science and technology since modem times, frontier has becoming more and more important in the aspect of economic and strategy. Frontier which was called foreign lands, impasse and alien area before, was regarded as an inalienable part of the motherland.Legal norm, school education and political propaganda made the concept frontier indivisible wide spread in society and accepted by the broad masses of people, especially intellectual. This is the deep reason why there were so much research achievements in 1930’s to 1940’s.
