Discussion On, And Not The Emperor Jiaqing Era Plight

Qing Dynasty was the last dynasty under Chinese feudalism. When colonial force of the west frequently invaded to china, the feudalism of China has already reached its peak. Its economical system has already tended towards the saturation, and begun to decline, showing the same characteristic with the middle period of the former dynasties. Its various kinds of drawback grew fast, contradictions intensified, which gave Jiaqing, who was the ruler of the middle period of Qing Dynasty, a great pressure. He was an emperor who wanted to achieve something. He wanted to run the country through being high to dismiss luxurious while being frugal and persevering etc. keep the county not decline, but his efforts did not stop the historical development trend eventually. The country continued declining in its inertia along the inherent track. Jiaqing should not take all the charge of declining, Since Qianlong left for him was such an irreversible situation. Its cause lay in the strange circle that Chinese feudalism sank into in middle period, which was made of feudalism itself. In the long historical developing, all existed system frame could not meet the demand of era development and the feudalism of China could not grow with each passing hour but strictly defended itself instead, which became strong obstruction of the society going on and developing forward. So it is impossible for us not to expect it can carry on self-remolding consciously, it can only be in it' s own close circle, carry on the repeated samara and unable to realize itself surmounts and the change of quality. Just Jiaqing was an ordinary person who watched over numerous middle period well, his experience was exactly their experience too. But he was also different from them. Because the booming western countries came to China at that time, China had to open its eyes to watch the world, broke the close system that circulated under the impact of the world huge torrent itself and began to enter a new era.
