摘要
1907年广东各界维护西江缉捕权的斗争,是广东乃至中国近代史上一件较有影响的事件。西江缉捕权之争直接源于广东西江一带的盗匪问题,是一场由内政不治引起的外交风波。由绅、商、学牵头的社会各界的奋起抗议,在表达自身爱国反侵略的民族主义情绪之时,也在很大程度上利用盗匪问题表达了改革内政、要求切实地方自治的政治主见,但却难为当局所接受。西江缉捕权风波在一定程度上折射出晚清统治的危机。
All circles of Guangdong province strove for the right to arrest the bandits in Xijiang area in 1907 and it had far-reaching influence. The bandit problem in the area resulted in struggle, which was a diplomatic issue caused by inefficient internal government. Different social classes, including gentries, merchants and students, in their protest against leaving the right of arresting bandits to foreign power, expressed their patriotism and political views of reform for local autonomy. However, the Chinese rulers did not accept their political requirements. The bandit problem reflected the ruling crisis of the late Qing dynasty.
