Research on Influencing Factors of Uneven Regional Development in Modern China—A Comparative Perspective between Treaty Ports and Inland Cities

在历史演进过程中，我国长期保持着广袤辽阔的地理特征，国内各地区在人才、技术、政策等因素的影响下，各地区经济发展程度出现差异，从而使得区域间经济发展的不平衡。而区域间发展的不平衡对各地区之影响也是明显的，尤其是欠发达地区。同时，近代中国各城市除了本身区位因素以外，还由于西方列强对中国城市之作为在客观上使得各个城市出现了不同程度的经济增长或衰退现象。本文以近代中国区域经济发展不平衡为研究对象，基于当时口岸城市与内陆城市的比较，通过梳理相关文献，论述影响区域经济不平衡性的因素。In the process of historical evolution, China has maintained a vast and expansive geographical feature for a long time. Under the influence of factors such as talent, technology, and policies, there are differences in the level of economic development among different regions, resulting in uneven economic development between regions. The uneven development between regions also has a significant impact on various regions, especially underdeveloped areas. At the same time, in addition to their own location factors, modern Chinese cities also experienced varying degrees of economic growth or decline due to the actions of Western powers towards Chinese cities objectively. This article takes the uneven development of regional economy in modern China as the research object, based on the comparison between port cities and inland cities at that time, and through sorting out relevant literature, discusses the factors that affect regional economic imbalance.
