摘要
"球案"是近代以来中日两国围绕琉球的归属权的争端。明治维新以后,日本看到亚洲古老的宗藩关系势必被时代所淘汰,处心积虑地要确立对中国的藩属国琉球的领土主权。这是日本对国际形势加以分析以及对近代国家观念有一定认识的情况下采取的行动。而中国清政府依然固守着宗藩关系的陈规,寄希望于西方国家体谅自己保卫属国的责任而干涉日本吞并琉球的行为。"球案"折射出近代初期中日外交理念的重大差异,这种外交理念的差异实质上反映了中日两国面对西方国际体系的冲击所做出的不同反应及其迥异选择。
The Ryukyu Sovereignty Case is about the disputes over the territorial sovereignty between China and Japan. Realizing that the suzerain-vassal state relationship in Ancient Asia would pass into history, Japan coveted the sovereignty over Ryukyu after the Meiji Reformation and tried very hard to establish its control over Ryukyu. The Japanese efforts were driven by its analysis of the international political situation as well as its ideas about modern state. In contrast, the Qing Government still adhered to the outdated suzerain-vassal state relationship, hoping that Western countries would understand its obligation to defend its suzerain-vassal state and its interference with the Japanese annex of Ryukyu. Reflected in the Ryukyu Sovereignty Case are the differences between the two nations＇ diplomatic ideas, which, in turn, are suggestive of the different responses of the two countries to the international system in which the western countries have the initiative. History has proved that the early modern diplomatic ideas of the Qing government were outdated and that it is such ideas that put modern China in much trouble.
