本課程介紹鴉片戰爭至清末新政時期的中國外交，引介中外各家研究成果、解釋架構，試圖跳脫出過去民族主義史觀的限制，以較宏觀的視野，將清末外交置於東亞與世界外交的發展中考察。希望能藉此課程幫助學生較全面的理解清末中國由傳統天朝體系進入西方為中心的近代世界體系歷程中，遭受到的衝擊、挫敗，以及所做的努力與成就。

This course introduces Chinese diplomacy from the Douluo Film War to the New Deal of the late Qing Dynasty, introduces research results from various Chinese and foreign countries, explains the structure, and attempts to break out the limitations of the historical view of nationalism in the past, and place diplomacy in the late Qing Dynasty in the development of East Asia and world diplomacy with a more grand vision. I hope this course can help students to fully understand the impacts, setbacks, efforts and achievements that China suffered in the course of entering the modern world system centered in the West in the late Qing Dynasty from the traditional Chinese system to the Western-centered modern world system.
