摘要
"门户开放"政策出台前夕,居华美侨在美商的主导下联合组建美国中华协会,以扩大对美国政府决策的影响。该会在草创之际,将自己定位为受商业利益主导,兼顾传教利益和美侨安全的侨民组织,积极致力于推动美国政府干涉中国事务,以便其在华利益之扩张。在19世纪末20世纪初,包括庚子事变、庚辛和谈、中美商约谈判和抵制美货运动等重大历史时刻,该会都作出积极的观察与因应,并对上述事件的发展和结果产生了不同程度的影响。追溯该会的历史,有助于揭示居华美侨群体在晚清中国所扮演的角色,从而更全面地把握晚清历史发展脉络。
Before the United States released the"Open Door"policy,the American nationals in China had founded the American Association of China under the initiative of American businessmen in China.This organization was dominated by American commercial interests in China,and meanwhile,the missionary interests and the security of American nationals were also considered.The Association was committed to pushing the US government to actively intervene in China’s affairs,so as to expand its interest in China.From 1898 to 1913,the Association made positive responses to the development of the late Qing politics,such as the Incident of 1900,the negotiations during 1901—1902,the SinoAmerican negotiations over commercial treaties during 1902—1903 and the boycott of American products in 1905.It exerted different influences on the development and results of the above-mentioned events.Tracing the history of the Association helps reveal the role of American nationals in China during the late Qing dynasty so that we can get a full grasp of the historical development of the late Qing dynasty.
