清末抢米风潮补议

清末十年,各地抢米风潮层出迭现,以往史学界多关注长沙抢米风潮,而其它众多抢米风潮却未予足够的关注。就时空分布而言,清末抢米风潮多发生在灾害频仍的1906-1907年和1910-1911年,其中江苏、浙江、安徽是事件多发区域,且尤以省会、府县治所为重;就特征而言,由于所处时代的新旧杂糅,清末抢米风潮表现出低质性、被动性的特征。一个世纪后的今天,重温、反思这段历史仍有其重要时代意义。

The Complement Discussion about Rice Riot During the Late Qing Dynasty

Rice riot in different areas emerged one after another in the late Qing dynasty. Changsha rice riot had been gaining much attention in historian circle, while other rice riots failed to gain enough attention. In terms of time and space, the late Qing＇s rice riots frequently happened between 1906-1907 and 1910-1911. The disasters broke out more in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and other regions, especially in the capital cities of the provinces. In terms of the characters, due to the turning point of the old and new age, the rice riots were characterized by poor quality and passiveness. Today, when a century passed, it is still of great importance to review and self-examine that certain period of history.
