摘要: 咸同之际江南政治变动使得盛泽镇的传统权力结构发生根本性改变。以科甲为代表的传统士绅之家在战争中遭受破家之难,而新兴商人家族则通过各种政治运作,不仅发展成亦商亦仕的商绅之家,而且还成功地延续了其在战争中形成的权力格局,掌控战后盛泽权力。围绕咸同之际盛泽镇权势格局转换的细致考察,为探源晚清绅商阶层的崛起提供了一个典型案例。同时,也揭示出这场战争不仅改变了江南市镇的经济网络,更重构了市镇内部的权力格局。

Abstract: Because of the political changes in local society, the traditional power structure of Shengze Township experienced a fundamental change during the Xianfeng and Tongzhi reigns. The power of traditional gentry families, which was marked by success in the imperial examinations, was broken and destroyed during midcentury warfare. On the contrary, the emerging merchant families mastered the post-war power structure of Shengze Township relying on various political maneuvers. Through an investigation of the transformation of the power structure of Shengze township during Xianfeng and Tongzhi reigns, this essay provides a typical example of the fortunes of the gentry and merchants classes in late Qing China. At the same time, it also reveals how the struggles between gentry and merchant families not only changed the economic network of the Jiangnan region, but also fundamentally reconstructed the power structure inside the town.
