The Study Of Maritime Embargo Policy In Ming Dynasty

This article uses the historical treatise method of narrate discussion union, take the time as the foreword and divides it into early period , middle period and last period. Take the maritime embargo policy which take each stage the representative king adopts as the master line, analysis different maritime embargo policy which releasing time background, the political configuration, the socio-economic background, has the positive or the negative effect, as well as the king's political talent and so on, it is intend to promulgate the Ming Dynasty to treat the associated measures from Hongwu to Chong Zhen 260 years of life different time ruler the maritime embargo the manner and adopts, as well as produces profound influence.The text has been divided into three parts. The first part has analyzed the Ming Dynasty earlier period (Hongwu—Yunglo) the maritime embargo policy establishment, the evolution and the influence. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty establishment, what Mingtaizu Zhu Yuanzhang faced with is the economy broken, the social agitation grave situation. The foreign policy which he adopts has the obvious duality: On one hand he develops the peripheral neighborhood relations vigorously, develops the official intercourse; On the other hand strictly forbids to the folk contact, to implement the severe maritime embargo policy. The Hongwu 14 years (1381), Zhu Yuanzhang announced officially "endures is close to sea people illicit intercourse overseas various countries", which symbolizes that the maritime embargo take a Ming Dynasty's basic state policies official has been established, and "the ancestor is taught" by the later generation achievement. Although Ming Chengzue has made many reforms for the foreign policy which formulated by his/her father Zhu Yuanzhang, relaxed the maritime embargo greatly, but it was restrained by "the ancestor teaches", and the public proclamation has not been abolished the maritime embargo.The second part has analyzed the Ming Dynasty intermediate stage (Hongxi- Jiajing) maritime embargo policy and measure. This time span is long, goes nine dynasties, each dynasty has different manner for treatment maritime embargo. The Hongxi - Hongzhi time maritime embargo policy's strengthening once more, the Gende year the maritime embargo become lax gradually, the Jiajing year the maritime embargo policy become highly strengthened, so that "the Jiajing dwarf trouble".The third part has analyzed the Ming Hou period (Long Qing - Chong Zhen) the maritime embargo policy evolution. In view of the fact that the lesson of Jiajing period "the trouble of the Japanese pirate", Long Qing emperor has opened the sea policy, to promote the ultramarine trade development positively. To Tian Qi - Chong Zhen period, along with the end of the Ming dynasty politics's corrupt, the disorder and the invasion continuously, maritime embargo policy became intensifies day after day, simultaneously paying tribute survives with a name only.The conclusion is that, in view of the fact that the maritime embargo are "the ancestor who Mingtaizu Zhu Yuanzhang formulates teach", although the pine in the concrete execution has some different, finally not a bright emperor dare to relieve this to rub the incantation. This kind of abuse is followed by the afterward Qing Dynasty, and even goes beyond, evolves seals up completely closes off the country from foreign contact the policy, causes China even more to seal up, isolated in the world, long-term dissociation outside the world.
