Editor's Note:
"O ópio tem um dano.Ópio é um veneno, minando nossos bons costumes e moralidade.Seu uso é proibido por lei.Agora o plebeu, Yang, se atreve a trazê-lo para a Cidade Proibida.De fato, ele desrespeita a lei!No entanto, recentemente os compradores, comedores e consumidores de ópio se tornaram numerosos.Comerciantes enganosos compram e vendem para obter lucro.A alfândega do Portão Ch'ung-wen foi originalmente criada para supervisionar a coleta de importações (não tinha nenhuma responsabilidade com relação ao contrabando de ópio).Se limitarmos nossa busca por ópio aos portos marítimos, tememos que a busca não seja suficientemente completa. Devemos também ordenar ao comandante geral da polícia e policiais-censores nos cinco portões proibir o ópio e procurá-lo em todos os portões.Se eles capturarem qualquer infrator, eles devem imediatamente puni-los e destruir o ópio imediatamente.Quanto Kwangtung [Guangdong] e Fukien [Fujian], as províncias de ópio que vem, vamos pedir os vice-reis, governadores e superintendentes da alfândega marítima para realizar uma pesquisa completa para o ópio e cortar seu suprimento.Deve em nenhuma maneira consideram esta ordem letra morta e permitir que o ópio de ser contrabandeado para fora!"-O Imperador Daoguang, 1810 O século 19 viu a ascensão de um dos maiores, mais poderosos impérios da era moderna.O sol nunca se pôs no Império Britânico, cujas propriedades se estendiam pelo mundo, de uma forma ou de outra.Sua supremacia naval ligava a Comunidade do Canadá às colônias na África do Sul e na Índia e, por meio delas, o comércio fluía para o leste e para o oeste.Uma parte integral, porém subutilizada, dessa vasta rede de comércio incluía a China, um recluso reino asiático fechado do mundo ocidental que não desejava nenhum de seus bens. Infelizmente para a China, os britânicos tinham o poder de um império e força econômica, para não mencionar as armas modernas, ao seu lado.A invasão dos lucrativos mercados comerciais da China quase destruiu a nação, desacreditou severamente a dinastia chinesa, causou estragos em seu povo e impulsionou ainda mais o império britânico a uma posição econômica e militar dominante. A colisão desses dois impérios levou muitos anos e causou muito derramamento de sangue.De fato, os problemas começaram bem antes das eventuais hostilidades, apodrecendo à medida que a frustração aumentava até finalmente transbordar.Tal foi o estado das relações entre o Império Britânico e a Dinastia Qing durante a maior parte do século, com o pé em pé desde o início das relações. As Guerras do Ópio:A história e o legado do século XIX Os conflitos entre a Grã-Bretanha e a China examinam a maneira pela qual o comércio, o colonialismo e o uso de drogas ilegais culminaram com uma das lutas mais controversas do século XIX.Junto com retratos e uma bibliografia, você aprenderá sobre as guerras do ópio, como nunca antes.
