试论英国在鲁尔危机中的对法政策

文章论述了1923年鲁尔危机发生时,英国对法政策经历了由妥协到遏制的转变,并揭示出这种转变的政治和经济原因。政治原因是英国出于维护欧洲均势的需要,不希望法国压垮德国,在鲁尔危机后期,德国在法国的压迫下近于崩溃,这种情况迫使英国改变了对法国的妥协政策,转而进行遏制;经济原因是法国控制鲁尔逐渐损害了英国煤炭工业利益,不利于英国工业发展和国内经济的恢复,这也促成英国对法政策转变。 

On British Foreign Policy to France during Ruhr Crisis

This paper discusses the change on British policy on France from compromise to containment when the Ruhr crisis happened in 1923. It reveals the political and economical reasons. The political reason was British requirement of keeping the balance of Europe, and it didn't want France to crush Germany. At the end of Ruhr crisis, Germany was going to collapse with the pressure of France, and this made Britain resort to containment policy to France instead of compromise policy. The economical reason was that France's controlling Ruhr gradually endangered British interests of coal industry, and was harmful to the development of British industry and internal economy's recovery. This also caused the change of British policy to France.
