Unit 1 The invasion of the great powers and the struggle of the people of China

the opium war

First, no smoking.

Background:/kloc-In the first half of the 9th century, western capitalism developed rapidly and Britain became the most powerful industrial country in the world. Because Britain is in a super position in the trade with China, in order to reverse this situation and reap huge profits, Britain exports drugs-opium to China.

Measures: Arrest tobacco dealers, force foreign tobacco dealers to hand over all opium, and promise not to traffic opium to China again.

No smoking in Humen: June 3 ~ June 25 1839.

Significance: It has dealt a blow to the arrogance of the invaders, demonstrated the courage and strength of the people of China to ban smoking, and demonstrated to the whole world the strong determination of the people of China to safeguard national dignity and resist foreign aggression.

Second, the opium war.

Time: June1840 ~ August 1842

Process:1June, 840, the British fleet invaded the Guangdong Sea, and the Opium War broke out. During the war, Britain occupied Hong Kong Island and Guangzhou, and then captured Xiamen, Dinghai, Ningbo and Zhenjiang. 1842 in August, the Qing government was forced to sign the treaty of nanking. Patriotic official: Guan Tianpei, the first general of the Qing army who died in China in modern times.

"treaty of nanking" content: cutting Hong Kong Island to Britain; Open Guangzhou, Xiamen, Ningbo, Fuzhou and Shanghai as trading ports; Compensation 2 1 ten thousand yuan; China must reach an agreement with Britain on the taxes paid by British businessmen on imported and exported goods.

Impact: China's national sovereignty and territorial integrity were destroyed, and China began to become a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. The Opium War was the beginning of China's modern history.

Lesson 2 The beacon light rises again.

1. Time of the Second Opium War: 1856, 10 ~ 1860, 10.

Objective: To further open the door to China and expand the rights and interests of aggression. Invaders: Britain and France; Russia and the United States are accomplices

Process: 1856 10 In October, Britain and France went to war; 1860 10, British and French invaders invaded Beijing, looted soldiers and burned Yuanmingyuan, forcing the Qing government to sign the Beijing Treaty.

Course: 185 1 year, jintian uprising; 1853, with Tianjin as its capital; August 1860 and August 1862 defeated the foreign guns team; 1864, the movement failed.

Fourth, the left recovered Xinjiang.

Background: The border crisis in China has intensified. /kloc-In the 1960s of 0/9, Russia and Britain supported Agubo to occupy most of Xinjiang. 187 1 year, Russia invaded Ili.

Process: 1876, left led the army into Xinjiang; It took more than a year to recover the whole territory of Xinjiang except Yili; He also threatened to use force to force Russia to exchange Ili.

Historical significance: it consolidated the frontier defense in the northwest of the motherland and defended the territory and sovereignty of the motherland.

Evaluation left. Zuo was an important general of Xiang Army and later became an official of Qing Dynasty. He and Li Hongzhang are both important figures in the Westernization School, but Zuo and Li have very different attitudes towards foreign aggression. Zuo advocated resisting foreign aggression and was a famous resistance general. Zuo believes that Xinjiang is a barrier to the northwest, and if Xinjiang falls, it will be a disaster for the mainland. Therefore, he insisted on sending troops to Xinjiang, expelling foreign invasion, recovering lost ground and maintaining it.

Lesson 3 Sino-Japanese War Sino-Japanese War

1. Time of the Sino-Japanese War: July1894-April 1895.

Reason: Japanese imperialism deliberately provoked the war of annexing Korea and invading China.

(4) Impact: It marks that the invasion of China by foreign capitalism has entered an experience period, which has greatly deepened the semi-colonization of China and further deepened the national crisis in China.

Lesson 4 Eight-Nation Alliance's War of Aggression against China

First, the boxer movement.

(1) Reason: The imperialist aggression against China has intensified, and ethnic conflicts have intensified unprecedentedly.

(2) The object of struggle: imperialist aggression.

(3) Sports Center: Beijing-Tianjin area. (4) Main campaign: Langfang campaign.

(5) It failed under the joint suppression of the Qing government and Eight-Nation Alliance.

(6) Nature and significance: It was an anti-imperialist and patriotic peasant movement, which dealt a heavy blow to the imperialist forces of aggression, made the aggressors realize the greatness of the people's power in China, and also dealt a blow to the corrupt Qing government. Although the turbulent Qing government, together with imperialism, suppressed the Boxer Rebellion and concluded an unprecedented "Xin Chou Treaty" that humiliated the country and safeguarded feudal rule, it exposed the reactionary nature of the Qing government and enhanced the interests of the people.

Second, Eight-Nation Alliance's war of aggression against China:

Background: After the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the great powers carved up China, which aroused strong opposition from the Japanese people.

The boxer movement rose.

Time: 65438+June 0900-65438+September 090 1 Purpose: To suppress the anti-imperialist struggle of China people.

The allied forces are composed of Britain, Russia, Germany, the United States, France, Japan, Italy and Austria.

Content: The Qing government compensated 450 million taels of silver, which was paid off in 39 years, with more than 980 million taels of principal and interest. Dongjiaominxiang is designated as the border of the embassy, allowing countries to station troops for protection, and China people are not allowed to live on the border; The Qing government promised to prohibit people from participating in anti-imperialist activities; Demolish all fortresses from Tianjin to Dagu and allow foreign troops to station in Shanhaiguan from Beijing.

Influence: Through this treaty, the great powers further controlled China politically, economically and militarily, and the Qing government completely became a tool for the great powers to rule China, and China completely became a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society.

★ Note: Important issues

1. The Hatred and Ugliness Treaty is the heaviest yoke imposed by imperialism on the people of China. Please talk about the harm it has brought to the Chinese nation in combination with its main contents.

A: 1. Huge compensation is an unprecedented large-scale extortion of China by the great powers. In order to pay this huge compensation, on the one hand, the Qing government plundered the people, making their lives poorer and their social economy more depressed; On the other hand, borrowing a lot of foreign debts has facilitated foreign powers to control China's economic lifeline by controlling loans. 2. The Qing government severely suppressed the anti-imperialist struggle of the people of China, making the Qing government a tool for imperialism to rule China. 3. The foreign invaders controlled the Beijing-Tianjin area, making the Qing government completely under the control of foreign troops, so that imperialism could directly send troops to suppress the anti-imperialist struggle of the people of China. 4. The establishment of an "embassy circle" in Beijing is actually a "country within a country", and it is the base camp for imperialist planning to invade China. The envoys of various countries became the "emperor's father" of the Qing government.

2. A western historical work holds that the destruction of opium by Lin Zexu and Humen led to the outbreak of the Opium War. If Humen had not destroyed opium, the Opium War would not have broken out. Do you agree with this view? Please write a 50- 150 word debate draft based on historical facts.

This view is wrong. The destruction of opium by Lin Zexu and Humen was a just action of China people against foreign aggression. British colonists used this as an excuse to launch the Opium War. The Opium War was by no means an accident, but a historical necessity, because after the Industrial Revolution, the level of industrial development in Britain was very high. In order to open up foreign markets, promote industrial products and plunder cheap industrial raw materials, the bourgeoisie directed its aggression at China.

3. After the signing of the Xin Chou Treaty, it was pointed out that the Qing government had become a "foreigner's court". Is this statement reasonable? Why?

A: This statement makes sense. The great powers carried out another appalling economic plunder on China through the Treaty of Xin Chou. Moreover, the Qing government was completely under the military supervision and control of imperialism: according to the requirements of the treaty, the Qing government promised to prohibit people from participating in anti-imperialist activities, which made the Qing government officials become the "land guards" of imperialism, and Cixi even obeyed foreigners. All these indicate that the Qing government has become a loyal running dog of the imperialist powers. It is no exaggeration to say that the government has become a "court for foreigners".

Unit 2 The Beginning of Modernization

The rise of modern industry

I. Westernization Movement

Background: The Second Opium War and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement made the internal affairs and diplomacy of the Qing government difficult, and the great power of western powers' foreign guns deeply shocked Qing officials.

Advocacy and measures: advocate learning advanced production technology and training methods from the west and establishing some modern military industries and civilian enterprises; Reform the military, diplomacy, etc.

The bankruptcy of Westernization Movement was marked by the total annihilation of beiyang fleet in the Sino-Japanese War.

Evaluation of Westernization Movement: Westernization Movement was a self-help movement of failed feudal rulers, which did not make China rich and strong, but introduced advanced western science and technology, objectively promoted the emergence and development of Chinese national capitalism and opened the way for China's modernization.

The reason for the failure of Westernization Movement: The Westernization School didn't realize that it was impossible to make China rich and strong just by learning advanced western science and technology without touching the feudal system. With the failure of China in the Sino-Japanese War, the Westernization Movement also went bankrupt. Therefore, the Westernization Movement failed to save the ruling crisis of the Qing Dynasty, and it was a self-help movement of failed feudal rulers.

Second, the champion runs the enterprise.

Background: After the signing of treaty of shimonoseki, foreign capitalists have invested and set up factories in China to carry out larger-scale economic development.

Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao fled abroad, Tan Sitong and others were killed, and the political reform movement failed.

Influence: First of all, it is pointed out that the nature of the movement is a patriotic national salvation movement initiated by the reformists to safeguard national independence and develop capitalism when the nation is in danger; Secondly, it reflects the will of the nation, conforms to the requirements of the development of the times, marks the western bourgeois thoughts and theories advocated by the Chinese nation, impacts the shackles of feudal ideology and culture, plays the role of ideological enlightenment, and has an important and positive impact on China's modernization.
