浅析鸦片战争期间清廷的政治状况

摘要

鸦片战争是中国近代史上的一场反侵略战争，它作为中国近代史的开端，重新开启了中国认识世界的大门，打破了中国“唯我独尊”的心理状态，同时也带来了重新认识世界的机会，所以鸦片战争在中国历史上占有重要的地位。鸦片战争的失败具有一定的必然性，与当时清王朝腐败的政治状况具有很大的联系，当时的政治状况给抵抗外来侵略增加了许多的阻碍，使屈辱失败的结局永远留在了中国的历史上。可从清王朝的皇权专制制度、“闭关锁国”的外交政策、官吏腐败的管理制度、民族歧视的政策等方面，对鸦片战争期间清廷的政治状况进行详细分析。%The Opium War was a war against aggression in China’s modern history,it served as the beginning of modern Chinese his-tory,and re-opened the door for China to understand the world.The failure of the Opium War is of certain inevitability,and the polit-ical conditions of prevailing corruption in Qing Dynasty has great link to it.The paper closely analyzes the political situation of Qing Dynasty during the Opium War from the aspects of the Qing Dynasty’s imperial autocracy,the implementation of the“closed door”for-eign policy for maintaining the country dignity,the management system with officials’corruption,and the policy of ethnic discrimina-tion.
