Relations between the Westernization Movement and the Erya, the Eight Nation Alliance

The Second Opium War in 1864 seems to have been the result of the defeat of the Second Opium War, the Sino-Japanese War.

It began in 1894, and after the defeat, it marked the bankruptcy of the Westernization Movement and the Eight-Nation Alliance.

It was 1904 that there was no bird feather relationship.

The Second Opium War, a war of aggression against China launched by the British and French forces from 1856 to 1860. The Second Opium War was a war of aggression against China jointly launched by Britain and France with the support of the United States and Russia from October 1856 to October 1860. Its purpose is for Britain and France to further open up the Chinese market and expand their aggressive interests in China.

Yes; The connection is that after 1860, in the process of the joint suppression of the Taiping Revolution by Chinese and foreign reactionaries, a group of comprador bureaucratic warlords gradually formed in the Qing feudal clique. In the process of dealing with foreign capitalism, they not only believed that the contradictions between the Qing Dynasty and the foreign invaders could be mediated and compromised, and that they could "use foreign aid to suppress" and suppress the resistance of the people at home, but they could also adopt some capitalist production techniques in order to achieve the goal of maintaining the crumbling feudal rule.

This part of the people was the Westernists who were in power in the Qing Dynasty at that time, and they engaged in Westernization from the 60s to the 90s of the 19th century, which was known as the Westernization Movement in history. The so-called "foreign affairs" refer to all matters related to foreign relations and foreign exchanges, such as foreign negotiations, the conclusion of treaties, the dispatch of foreign students, the purchase of foreign guns and artillery, and the training of the armed forces in accordance with the "foreign law," the study of foreign science, the use of machinery, and the opening of mines and factories.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten, and the Westernization movement is "Xu Tu self-improvement".

In the later period of the Westernization Movement, the banner of the Rock Oak faction was ()A"Master Yi long skills to control Yi".

b."Self-improvement".

c."Fu Qing to extinguish the foreign fortune".

d."Seeking wealth and ruining jujubes".

Correct answer: "Seeking wealth".

Because the First Opium War did not bring a real sense of crisis to the Qing Dynasty; The second reason was that the conservative forces were too strong at that time, and in addition, they were not ideologically civilized and did not form an ideological trend.

During the Opium War, the broad masses of people in China's southeastern coastal areas actively supported and cooperated with the Qing army in their operations and spontaneously persisted in the struggle against aggression. Everywhere the invading army went, it was resisted by the local people. When the British captured Xiamen, the local people automatically organized themselves to attack the British army, forcing the invading army to retreat to Gulangyu.

The British army invaded Zhejiang, and the people of Zhejiang organized the "Blackwater Party" to strike hard at the British army. After the invading army invaded the Yangtze River, the people along the river attacked the British army in many ways to prevent the British fleet from advancing.

Nature of the Westernization Movement: The Westernization Movement was a self-help movement of failed feudal rulers.

Clause. 1. Establish a modern military industry.

Clause. 2. Establish civilian industries.

Clause. 3. Planning for coastal defense.

Clause. Fourth, the establishment of a new style of school.

Evaluation: First of all, the Westernization Movement did not put China on the road to prosperity and strength. In the First Sino-Japanese War, the Beiyang Fleet was completely annihilated, and the Westernization Movement was declared bankrupt.

There are many inherent reasons for this, but the most fundamental one is not to touch the feudal system, and to put on the new without removing the old, which is the fundamental reason for the bankruptcy of the Westernization Movement. Second, the Westernization Movement played a positive role. Its positive effects are manifested in:

First, the introduction of some modern science and technology from Western capitalist countries led to the emergence of the first batch of modern enterprises in China. Second, it has accumulated production experience and cultivated technical strength for China's modern enterprises. Third, it objectively played a role in promoting the emergence and development of China's national capitalism and opened up the way for China's modernization.

Three navies were prepared: Nanyang, Beiyang, and Beiyang. Establish a new school and send international students to study abroad. Objectively, it has promoted the development of capitalism in China and pushed forward the process of China's modernization.

The process of China's modernization was initiated.
