古代中国有高度发达的农耕文化,专制王朝的政治实践导致中国古代形成重陆轻海的国家安全观。中国近代百年的屈辱历史从本质上讲是海权优先国家对陆权优先国家的侵略。近代以来中国社会对海洋的认知呈现层次性发展脉络,从早期的关注海防建设慢慢转向海洋综合性发展。远古以来中华民族就有强烈的征服海洋意识,近代中国海洋开发的落伍只是暂时性的。梳理近代以来的海洋开发资料,有助于提高大学生对国情的认知,增强海洋强国的自信心。

Ancient China had a highly developed farming culture, and the political practice of the autocratic dynasty led to the formation of national security concept that autocratic dynasty emphasized the exploitation of land over the utilization of ocean. The modern Chinese humiliating history was essentially the aggression of countries with priority in maritime power over countries with priority in land power. Since opium war, the ocean cognition of Chinese society has been developing in a hierarchical way, and early limited to coastal defense construction had gradually turned to the comprehensive marine development. The Chinese nation had formed a strong sense of conquering the ocean since ancient times;the marine development in modern china was only temporarily out of date. Combing the context of marine development in Chinese history could help to improve college students’ cognition about our special national condition and enhance the self-confidence of the maritime power.
