国民党为何失去中国大陆及其政权，是几乎所有研究中国近现代史的学者所面临的根本问题。从抗日胜利到失去大陆，仅仅过去了四年多一点的时间。为何在此之前，日本尽管拥有压倒性的优势，却用了八年时间仍无法征服国民党统治下的中国？反过来说，处于绝对劣势的中国共产党是如何在四年内挑战并成功战胜国民党的呢？此前官方的解释主要强调当时影响国民党的不利因素，如指责苏联对中共的支持、美国对国民党政府的支持不足、中共成功的战略运用，以及和平谈判失败的影响。另一方面，国外学者则关注国民党内部的结构性问题，强调党内派系斗争和地区军阀的抵抗，削弱了执政基础，导致民意流失。

In reality, during the period of losing the mainland, the KMT's propaganda played a crucial role. Despite the KMT gradually finding itself in a disadvantaged position in terms of military, politics, economy, and diplomacy after the war, the dissemination of these defeats would not have been so rapid without the CCP's influential propaganda efforts. Faced with the formidable propaganda offensive by the CCP, the KMT's party-controlled news system was unable to mount a strong counterattack. In fact, excessive news control on the KMT's part became a source of the turn towards privately-owned newspapers. What problems did the KMT's propaganda face at that time? How does the failure in propaganda relate to the shift in political power between the KMT and the CCP? These critical questions have not been addressed in the academic community in the past. This article attempts to break new ground by examining the transformation of China's post-war political situation from the perspective of propaganda.

国民党为什么失去大陆现代政治，几乎是所有研究中国史的必须学者的问题。从抗战胜利到大陆失守，相比不到四年多的时间，在此之前，日本以绝对的优势费时八年尚不能征服国民党统治下的中国？而中共却以绝对的劣势于四年间向国民党挑战成功？关于这个问题，过去官方蔗多针对当时非国民党的主要政党申论，指责苏俄的支持中共、美国的未能全力支持国民政府、中共的策略运用成功，及和谈误国等；外籍学者则直接从国民党本身的结构问题着眼，认为党内派系斗争与地方军阀的反动摇了执政根基，造成民众的损失青睐。

其实，在失去大陆政权的似历史中，国民党的新闻宣传具有关键地位。战后国民党虽然在军事、政治、经济、学术上逐渐处于不利地位，但若非中共在新闻宣传上的推波助澜，这些挫败的扩散效应也至于如此迅猛。面对凌厉的新闻宣传势攻势，国民党的党体新闻却无力做出反应，甚至超高的中共新闻控制反成为报纸左转的骨髓。当时国民党的新闻宣传究竟是什么如此重要的问题过去学界尚无人论及，论文尝试突破，从新闻宣传角度观察战后中国政局的转变。

上海工会联合会，简称上海工联会。土地革命战争时期，上海各赤色工会的联合组织。1929年6月正式成立，徐锡根任工联党团书记。11月，中共江苏省委决定，徐炳根为工联会委员长，徐锡根为党团书记。1930年1月，李梅林为委员长。4月，徐炳根被捕，由徐锡根任工联会委员长兼党团书记。5月，徐锡根调任全国总工会党团书记，由沈先定（沈显庭）任工联会委员长，王克全兼任工联会党团书记。1931年1月，中共江苏省委停止王克全的工联会党团书记工作，由殷鉴代理。1932年初，徐锡根被捕叛变。3月，刘少奇任工联会党团书记。后由饶漱石、杨尚昆、袁孟超等接任。1933年9月以后，由于工联会不断遭到破坏，遂改为常委负责制。上海工联成立后，先后在上海的沪东、沪西、法南、闸北、沪中和浦东等区建立区工会联合会。1936年11月，全国总工会白区执行局传达中共驻共产国际代表团关于停止白区工会工作的意见。全总白区执行局、上海工会联合会和各产业总工会随即结束。

“Seeking Xu Chuanxian: From Shanghai to Beijing" (xun zhao xu chuan xian: cong shang hai dao bei jing) is a biography about Xu Chuanxian, a Chinese postal figure. The author Shi Nian Kan Chai analyzes and presents Xu Chuanxian's life within the context of the era and interpersonal networks. The book draws from historical records, archived documents, industry-related materials, and accounts from individuals who interacted with Xu Chuanxian. The author also conducted in-depth research at historical sites in Shanghai, Chongqing, Hunan, Beijing, Henan, and other places to faithfully explore Xu's life and work, providing a genuine, rich, and profound portrayal of the extraordinary and bittersweet life of a Chinese intellectual in the 20th century. Simultaneously, it bears witness to the development of China's postal system from weakness to strength, reflecting the life trajectory and era's destiny of a generation of intellectuals. The book aims to enable more people to understand the dedicated and upward endeavors of the unsung heroes in that era of significant historical transformations.

The book primarily revolves around Xu Chuanxian's activities from Shanghai to Beijing, with a secondary focus on his father, Xu Xichun (founder of the Qingpu branch of the Chinese Red Cross Society), to illustrate the choices and role of traditional families during the turbulence of the late Qing and early Republican periods, recognizing the significant impact of family and lineage in China's societal transformation. Moreover, the book reflects on the relationship between the "twin cities" of China – Shanghai and Beijing – over the past century and their crucial roles in the country's modern history. It delves into their interactions in areas such as power and capital, conservatism and innovation, introversion and extroversion, localization, and globalization, which reached a delicate balance influencing not only China but also the world. From this perspective, the book can also be viewed as Xu Chuanxian's "Tale of Two Cities," wherein the cultural differences and the relationship between Shanghai and Beijing are projected onto Xu Chuanxian's life.

Xu Chuanxian's life spanned three eras: he was born in 1908 during the late Qing Dynasty, spent most of his life in the tumultuous period of the Republic, and later transitioned into the era of the People's Republic. Proficient in three foreign languages (English, French, and Russian), he traveled extensively to numerous countries, making significant contributions to China's postal industry.

Since Xu Chuanxian joined the Shanghai Post Office as a postal trainee after dropping out from the first year of the Sino-French Institute of Technology in 1924, until his passing in Beijing in 1972, his entire career remained dedicated to the Chinese postal industry. Whether as a junior postal clerk at the Shanghai Post Office, representative of the Chinese Post Office in Vietnam and Myanmar, chief of lessons at the Chinese Post Office General Administration, later as director of the Shanghai Post Office, deputy chief and division chief of the Chinese Post Office General Administration, head of the East China Postal General Administration, Chinese representative to the Universal Postal Union Congress, and later, as deputy head of the International Relations Department of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications and chief of the Chinese Post Office Liaison Bureau, where he attended an international conference as a representative of the People's Republic of China for the first time. Lastly, his role as a teacher at the Beijing Institute of Posts and Telecommunications (now Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications). Throughout the changing tides of the times, what remained unchanged was his professionalism and dedication to serving the Chinese postal industry

Liu Huiwu served as the editor, with contributions from Zhu Hua, Su Zhiliang, and others. Published by East China Normal University Press in 1985 and 1987, this work consists of two volumes. It provides a comprehensive examination of Shanghai's history from its opening to the year 1949. The book primarily focuses on political aspects, extensively discussing issues related to ethnic conflicts, anti-imperialism, patriotism, and class struggles. It also touches upon the overall economic and social development of modern Shanghai.

It serves as both a comprehensive cultural reference and a selected collection of Shanghai's 'Bamboo Branch Songs.' The entire book comprises 480,000 Chinese characters."

上海市地方史志学会副秘书长、新编《川沙县志》副主编顾炳权撰写的《上海风俗古迹考》，最近由华东师范大学出版社出版。该书采用历史掌故与《竹枝词》相结合的方式，分门别类地记述上海的历史，其中征引的《竹枝词》近1600首，既是风土杂考之书，又是上海《竹枝词》的选本。全书48万字。

We have collected and selected historical materials related to the Small Swords Society（Xiao Dao Hui） Uprising. Apart from revolutionary literature, the majority of these materials consist of archives, newspapers, private writings, and notes from the reactionary rule of the Qing Dynasty and imperialist forces. These materials have significant historical value, and we have compiled them for researchers' reference. The editing methods we have adopted are as follows:

1. The collected materials, both in Chinese and foreign languages, are complex in content and form. To preserve the original documents, we generally refrain from cutting or fragmenting them. The materials are divided into six sections based on their nature. To provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the history of the Small Swords Society Uprising, we have prepared two introductory pieces: "Overview of the Small Swords Society Uprising" and "Timeline of Major Events in the Small Swords Society Uprising." These sections are accompanied by revolutionary artifacts, photographs, and maps, placed at the beginning of the compilation.

2. The materials in this compilation are divided into six sections: the first section contains literature on the Small Swords Society, the second section consists of records and reports on the uprising and its battles in Shanghai, the third section comprises archival materials on the Qing Dynasty's feudal ruling class suppressing  the Small Swords Society Uprising, the fourth section includes archives and records of foreign invaders' interference in the Small Swords Society Uprising, the fifth section contains other relevant historical materials on the uprising, and the sixth section comprises materials on the uprisings of the people in the counties near Shanghai, along with related materials documenting the response from Ningbo, Zhejiang.

3. Before each section, the editors have provided commentary to explain the content, nature, and historical value of the included materials, allowing readers to gain a clear understanding of each section.

4. Under each material's title, the editors have provided an evaluation to help readers understand the source, version, authors' perspectives, the historical value of the work, and any inaccuracies it may contain.

5. The titles of the materials are generally preserved without modification. Only a few highly reactionary titles that defame the revolution and are intolerable have been modified, with the original titles still included as annotations after the respective materials.

6. With regards to the foreign language materials in this compilation, the majority have been translated and selected by us. The translated names of individuals and places strive to match those already published. When using older translations from various books, we have made uniform changes to names of individuals and places while leaving the rest unchanged. A table providing name translations is included at the end. The most challenging to translate are the revolutionary documents. We have referenced the Chinese style of the Small Swords Society's proclamations to restore their original appearance as much as possible. However, due to significant differences between the Chinese literary style and English writing conventions, we can only strive for approximation.

7. The Chinese materials included in this compilation have undergone collation using different versions. We have selected the better versions and supplemented them using other editions. For example, "The Origins and Development of Westernization" was chosen over "The Qing Veritable Records" due to the former's earlier publication date. Similarly, for revolutionary documents of the Small Swords Society with multiple versions, the best version was chosen as the base text, with other versions used for supplementation and accompanied by explanations.

8. The materials related to the Shanghai Xidao Club Uprising in the North China Herald amount to approximately 160,000 words. Among them are original revolutionary documents that have been lost, detailed reports on the battles, historical records of imperialist occupation of customs and concessions, as well as special features on the Qing Dynasty's feudal rule compromising and surrendering. Based on the nature of these materials, they have been categorized and included in the respective sections. The discovery of revolutionary documents provides new evidence for studying the political situation of the Small Swords Society and their relationship with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Although the continuous reports on the battles contain the perspective of the aggressors, they are still detailed historical materials of the revolutionary war. Therefore, we have compiled these reports for readers' reference.

9. The sources and origins of the cultural relics' images included in this compilation are indicated. Among them, the photos of Jiading were taken during our own investigation, and the maps were drawn by us.

10. We are currently lacking investigative materials on the Small Swords Society Uprising. We have only conducted preliminary investigations in Jiading. We hope comrades from Shanghai, Jiading, Qingpu, Baoshan, Nanhui, Chuansha, and other counties can assist us in order to supplement the investigative materials in the future.

11. This compilation of historical materials is a thematic collection aimed at organizing the history of the Shanghai people's struggles and supplementing the historical materials of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Due to the limited collection time and insufficient in-depth work, there may inevitably be omissions and errors

Volumes for 1884-1889.

The Dianshizhai huabao 點石齋畫報 "Illustrated Lithographer" was an illustrated magazine that achieved great attention in the late 19th century because it was produced on a lithographic basis, which made it possible to reach a large public. The name is derived from a building within the complex of the Shenbao Publishing House 申報館 in Shanghai where lithographic prints could be produced. Publisher of the "Illustrated Lithographer" was the British Ernest Major (1841-1908, Chinese name Meicha 美查) who also published the famous newpaper Shenbao 申報 "Shanghai News". The first issue of the Dianshizhai huabao was published on May 8, 1884 in Shanghai, the last issue came out in 1898. There were in total 528 issues (according to a lower estimation, 473 issues) including more than 4,600 illustrations. The magazine appeared on a ten-day basis (xunkan 旬刊). Each issue had the same format containing eight pages with 8 illustrations. Collectors could then assemble each issue in a traditional thread-bound booklet. The issues were numbered according to the Heavenly Stems, Earthly Branches, musical notes and the so-called Six Arts. It was sold separately or was given as a free supplement to subscribers of the newspaper Shenbao. [Source: http://www.bc.edu/research/chinagateway/culthist/dianshizhai_intro.html]
 

To commemorate the 60th anniversary of the great May Fourth Movement, the Shanghai People's Publishing House recently reissued the 'Compilation of Historical Materials on the May Fourth Movement in Shanghai,' edited by the History Research Institute of the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences (hereafter referred to as the 'Compilation'). When news of the May Fourth Movement breaking out in Beijing reached Shanghai, the people of Shanghai immediately responded fervently. The students of Shanghai were the first to launch patriotic activities in support of the Beijing students. Subsequently, various sectors and political groups in Shanghai issued appeals, unanimously supporting the patriotic actions of Beijing students and demanding the rejection of the 'Treaty of Versailles,' and the stern punishment of traitors like Cao, Lu, and Zhang. The 'Compilation' extensively portrays and introduces the National Assembly convened by the people of Shanghai, demonstrations, the establishment of the 'Shanghai Student Union' leading the student movement, and the promotion of boycotting Japanese goods by the 'Advocacy of Domestic Goods Association' and 'Open-Air Propaganda Team,' among other actions, in practical support and endorsement of the patriotic actions of Beijing students. These historical materials provide a vivid depiction of the intense mass struggle during that period. It's worth noting that the 'Compilation' also collected materials on the struggle of the people of Shanghai against the comprador bourgeoisie represented by Yu Qiaqing and Zhu Baosan. The comprador bourgeoisie in China were imperialist lackeys, the arch-enemies of the Chinese people. Therefore, at the crucial historical moment of May Fourth, they undoubtedly emerged to sabotage the righteous patriotic struggle of the Chinese people and serve their imperialist masters. The 'Compilation' effectively exposes the vile actions and deeds perpetrated by the comprador bourgeoisie, led by Yu Qiaqing, during the 'Three Abstentions' movement and struggle in Shanghai. After the June Third incident, the workers, students, and business community of Shanghai bravely conducted the 'Three Abstentions' movement, which included strikes, class boycotts, and market closures. Particularly, the political general strike by the working class in Shanghai played a decisive role in achieving the movement's victory. The 'Compilation' contains numerous materials reflecting this aspect. For instance, in addition to going on strike, workers from the Xinji Machine Factory in Shanghai built a wooden arch near the factory entrance inscribed with the words 'Do Not Forget the National Humiliation' to motivate people to persist in the 'Three Abstentions' struggle. The struggle of shop employees was also resolute during this time. A shop employee on Henan Road once wrote in his own blood and posted a sign on the store's door with twelve big characters: 'As long as the students are detained, this store will remain closed.' Many shops had slogans posted outside: 'The nation is on the verge of destruction, no interest in business,' 'Stop business to save detained students,' and similar slogans, indicating the determination to carry the 'Three Abstentions' struggle to the end. The materials collected in the 'Compilation' span from the outbreak of the May Fourth Movement to the establishment of the Communist groups in Shanghai during that period. They have been carefully categorized based on their different natures. Comrade Mao Zedong said: 'The May Fourth Movement occurred under the call of the revolutionary movement of the world at that time, under the call of the Russian Revolution, and under the call of Lenin.' Therefore, the 'Compilation' first utilizes important writings by communist intellectuals, introducing the October Socialist Revolution in Russia and Marxist publications. Additionally, a significant portion of the historical materials in the 'Compilation' is selected from bourgeois newspapers published in Shanghai at that time. However, bourgeois newspaper reports inevitably carry their class biases, making them flawed as historical materials. Furthermore, the 'Compilation' also includes selected opposing materials from relevant archives of the country, annual reports of the Shanghai Public Works Department, and foreign-language newspapers in Shanghai. Through these historical materials, we can gain an understanding of the historical panorama of that time from various perspectives—positive, lateral, and opposing. The 'Compilation' features over forty finely printed historical photographs at the beginning of the book. These include photographs taken at that time and physical images, featuring comrades Li Dazhao, Mao Zedong, Zhou Sili during the May Fourth period, as well as copperplate photographs of 'New Youth,' 'Weekly Review,' 'Xiangjiang Review,' and historical images of the heroic struggle of the Shanghai people during the May Fourth period. They are valuable materials for studying the May Fourth Movement.

为了纪念伟大的五四运动六十周年,上海人民出版社最近重版了上海社会科学院历史研究所编辑的《五四运动在上海史料选辑》(以下简称《选辑》)。当五四运动在北京爆发的消息传到上海后,上海人民立即热烈响应。上海学生首先开展声援北京学生的爱国活动,接着上海各阶层、各政治团体也纷纷发出通电,一致声援北京学生的爱国行动,坚决要求拒签“巴黎和约”,严惩曹、陆、章等卖国贼。《选辑》用较大的篇幅反映和介绍了上海各界人民召开国民大会,举行示威游行,成立领导学生运动的“上海学联”和宣传抵制日货的“劝用国货会’、“露天宣讲团’等等,以实际行动支持和声援北京学生的爱国行动。这些历史资料,为我们提供了一幅生动的如火如茶的群众斗争的历史场面。这里值得一提的是,《选辑》还搜集了上海人民与大买办虞洽卿、朱葆三的斗争。中国的大买办阶级是帝国主义豢养的走狗,是中国人民的死敌,因此,在“五四’这一关键历史时刻,他们必然会跳出来破坏中国人民正义的爱国斗争,为其帝国主义主子效犬马之力。以虞洽卿为首的大买办阶级在上海的“三罢,斗争中干尽了坏事和丑事,《选辑》在这方面也以大量令人信服的材料进行了揭露。“六三”以后上海工人、学生、商界英勇地举行了罢工、罢课、罢市的“三罢,斗争,其中特别是上海工人阶级的政治性大罢工,对争取运动的胜利起了决定性的作用。《选辑》中反映这方面的材料也比较多.例如求新机器厂工人除了进行罢工外,还在厂附近的街口搭建了一座铁木牌楼,上书“毋忘国耻”,以此来激励人们把“三罢”斗争进行到底。当时店员工人的斗争也极坚决,河南路有一店员曾破指血书“学生一日不放,本店一日不开,十二个大字贴于商店门口。许多商店门前贴着标语:“国家将亡,无心营业”,“被拘学生,停市挽救”等标语,表示了要将“三罢’斗争进行到底的决心。《选辑》所收资料是从五四运动爆发到上海共产主义小组成立这一期间的历史资料,并根据不同性质分门别类地加以选编。毛泽东同志说:“五四运动是在当时世界革命号召之下,是在俄国革命号召之下,是在列宁号召之下发生的。”所以《选辑》首先采用了共产主义知识分子的重要论著,介绍俄国十月社会主义革命和马克思主义的报刊;其次,《选辑》中有一大部分历史资料是从当时在上海出版的资产阶级报纸中选录出来的,但资产阶级报纸的报道必然有其阶级的偏见,因此,作为史料来说是有其缺陷的。另外,《选辑》还从有关国家的档案、上海公共租界工部局年报和上海的外文报纸中选录了个别反面资料。我们从这些历史资料中可以从正面、侧面和反面看出当时的历史概貌。《选辑》书首的四十余张印刷精良的历史照片,是当时摄影的和实物的照片,其中有李大钊、毛泽东、周思来同志在“五四”时期的历史照片和《新青年》、《每周评论》、《湘江评论》铜版照片以及上海人民在五四时期英勇斗争的历史图片。它们都是研究五四运动的珍贵资料。

This compilation of archival historical materials is a collection from the Shanghai Commodity Exchange and the Shanghai Stock Exchange, mainly selected from the archival collections of the Shanghai Municipal Archives and other relevant collections. The Shanghai Commodity Exchange was initiated in early 1917 and officially established in 1920, making it the earliest comprehensive exchange established in China. The selected archives in this compilation reflect the establishment and relevant operational activities of the exchange, providing primary source materials for studying the securities and commodity trading activities at that time. The mention of Zhang Jingjiang and Chiang Kai-shek's involvement in brokering securities and commodities trading at the exchange in the early 1920s is an issue of significant interest in historical studies. The China Second Historical Archives generously released archives and other historical materials related to this aspect, greatly enhancing the content of this book, and we express our gratitude for this. The Shanghai Stock Exchange was established by the Nationalist government after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War with the aim of promoting enterprise investment, facilitating economic rehabilitation, establishing a sound securities market, and supporting industrial and commercial enterprises. It commenced operations in September 1946, overseeing securities trading throughout the city and being the 'sole securities trading market' in China at that time, occupying a significant position in the socio-economic life of the period. In addition, we have selected various materials from relevant archives and old newspapers and periodicals as appendices. These are important historical materials for a comprehensive understanding and research of the securities industry in old Shanghai and even old China. We believe they offer valuable insights for the recently recovering securities market today.

本辑档案史料汇编，系上海证券物品交易所与上海证券交易所的合集，主要选自上海市档案馆所藏上海证券物品交易所全宗及其他有关全宗。上海证券物品交易所，发起于1917年初，正式创设于1920年，是我国创办最早的一家综合性交易所。本辑所选档案，反映了该所创建经过以及有关经营活动，是研究当时证券、物品交易活动的第一手材料。内中述及的20年代初张静江、蒋介石等在该所经纪证券物品交易一事，更是史学界颇为关注的问题。中国第二历史档案馆概允公布这方面的档案及其他史料，使 本书增色不少，在此谨表谢意。上海证券交易所，系抗战胜利后国民党当局为“提倡企业投资，促进经济复员，建立健全证券市场，扶助工商企业”而授意上海金融界组设的，开业于1946年9月，统辖全市的证券交易，这也是那时中国“唯一之证券交易市场”，在当时社会经济生活中占有重要一席。此外，我们还从有关档案、旧报刊中选取若干资料，作为附录，这些都是全面了解和研究旧上海乃至旧中国证券事业的重要史料，相信对今天复苏不久的证券市场也不无可供借鉴之处。

This collection talks about scholars' work and story of Institute of History, Shanghai Academy of Social Science.

This book was published in 1933 by the Shanghai Evening Post & Mercury Press. The author, Yu Muxia, was a native of Qingpu in Shanghai and had achieved the title of "Xiucai" in the late Qing dynasty's imperial examination. During the Republican era, he worked for various newspapers, including the 'Current Events News' and the 'Shanghai Morning Post.'

The term '鳞爪' (linzhao) metaphorically refers to fragments of events. The book 'Shanghai Moments' primarily focuses on the appearance of old Shanghai during the 1920s to 1930s. It covers a wide range of aspects of life within the international settlements of that time, providing intricate descriptions that encompassed various domains. The book delves into meticulous portrayals of life in the concessions, depicting characters from different strata of society. It also exposes the shadowy corners of society such as gambling houses, courtesans, and opium dens, unveiling the world of hidden creatures and spirits. Through the use of coded language and insider secrets, the writing vividly and engagingly captures the social landscape of old Shanghai, allowing readers to gain a comprehensive understanding of the societal customs and human interactions on the bustling shores of that era.

本书于1933年在上海沪报馆刊印出版，作者郁慕侠是上海青浦人，曾在晚清考中秀才。在民国时期，曾在《时事新报》、《沪报》等多家报馆工作。
鳞爪二字，比喻事情的片段。而《上海鳞爪》一书则主要聚焦上世纪20~30年代的旧上海风貌，不限于某一领域，海纳百川的对当时租界生活的各个方面进行细致入微的描写，更有很多社会底层人物写照，以及赌场、娼妓、烟馆等社会阴暗角落的“魑魅魍魉”，种种暗语黑话、社会秘闻内幕，文笔异常生动有趣，可以带读者全方位了解当年上海滩的社会风貌，人情世故。

This book relies on various historical documents such as genealogies, local records, and tomb inscriptions to systematically analyze 86 prominent clans in the historical Qingpu region. The primary focus is on exploring the origins, lineage changes, characteristics, and societal contributions of these clans, with brief descriptions of representative figures within them.

This book is an investigation into a political event that occurred half a century ago—the Shanghai Dance Tide Case. The event was triggered by the Nationalist government's decree in September 1947, during the 'Suppression of Bandits and Building of the Nation' campaign, which banned all commercial dance halls nationwide, causing unprecedented upheaval in the Shanghai dance industry and eliciting strong societal reactions.

On January 31, 1948, in response to the Social Affairs Bureau's advance lottery and unilateral implementation of the dance ban, the dance industry personnel marched to petition, but Director Wu Kaixian refused to meet with them. In their anger, the dance industry members collectively destroyed the bureau's office building. Following the incident, about 400 dance girls were arrested by the police, and several of them were sentenced by traitors. The government was eventually forced to revoke the ban, and the sensational Dance Tide Case came to an end.

The Dance Tide Case left behind a long-standing puzzle in Shanghai's history. Despite various existing narratives, comprehensive explanations about its origins, development, climax, and conclusion are often lacking. Related stories and anecdotes are scattered in miscellaneous and obscure literary materials, receiving little attention for a long time. However, one thing has always been clear—it was not a premeditated or organized political action, which might be the reason it has been coldly treated in the field of domestic historical research. The Dance Tide Case seems to be a low-key and short melody that does not quite harmonize with the prevailing anti-civil war theme in post-war Shanghai. It was prematurely overshadowed by the scattered memories of the elderly about soaring prices, labor strikes, frequent student movements, and the roaring police cars in post-war Shanghai, gradually fading and becoming obscure with the passage of time, leaving no trace behind.

本书是对发生于半个世纪前的一起政治事件——上海舞潮案的考察。事件的起因是，1947年9月国民政府为“戡乱建国”而“节约消费”颁布了在全国禁止营业性舞厅的法令，由此引发上海舞业空前震荡，社会反应强烈。1948年1月31日下午，鉴于市社会局提前抽签，并单方面完成禁舞部署，舞业从业人员集队前往请愿，局长吴开先拒不接见。愤怒之下，舞业方面群起捣毁了社会局办公大楼，事发后，约400名舞女被警局羁押，半年后数名舞女被叛徒刑，政府也被迫收回成命，轰动一时的舞潮案至此平息。

　　舞潮案在上海历史上留下了长期难解的疑惑，有关它的起因、发展、高潮和结局，在诸多现成的叙述中往往找不到详尽的解释，与之相关的种种旧闻轶事留存于庞杂零散的文献资料里，也长期无人问津。但有一点始终是清楚的，它不是一起有预谋。有组织的政治行动，或许这正是它在国内史学研究领域一直备受冷遇的原因。舞潮案似乎是一支与战后上海反内战主旋律不甚合拍的低调短曲，过早地被覆盖在老上海们对战后物价飞涨、工潮起伏、学运频繁、警车呼啸的散乱记忆深处，任岁月流逝而日渐淡忘、模糊，不再留有任何印痕。

This book focuses on the specific period of Shanghai's transformation from a traditional county town to a modern metropolis, with the development of folk charity as its main theme. For the first time, it systematically traces the historical development process of folk charity organizations in Shanghai and provides a classified description of the main charitable activities in the local community. It showcases how local gentry, merchants, and elites in Shanghai adapted traditional charitable ideas and philanthropic culture to meet the challenges of unprecedented changes, while also incorporating Western philanthropic thoughts and practices. Actively participating in urban construction and promoting Shanghai's urbanization process, they made significant contributions to the development of modern Shanghai.

The various forms of vehicles depict a myriad of appearances and experiences, each reflecting the cycles of prosperity and decline. The evolution and transformation of vehicles throughout this period are intricately linked to economic growth, societal shifts, and historical developments.

This book aims to offer young readers a concise portrayal of the transportation and customs of old Shanghai, allowing them to gain a more comprehensive understanding of today's Shanghai through insights into the past and prospects for the future. This is precisely the author's aspiration.

车子大观园里格式车子各有相貌又迭有兴衰，期间的演化沿革自然由于经济增长、社会变化、历史发展息息相关。在近百年间各式车子的历史演变也可以从一个侧面反映出旧上海市的社会政治、经济活动和人情风俗的发展变化。本书意在为青年朋友贡献一副简明的旧上海交通风俗画，以便于通过了解过去而更全面地认识今天的上海及展望未来，这正是笔者的愿望所在。

The prosperity and magnificence of Shanghai, at its inception, were a 'maritime marvel'. This city, full of legends, transformed from a county town on the lower reaches of the Yangtze River into one of East Asia's premier international trading ports within a mere century after the Opium Wars. It collectively challenged and reshaped China's traditional cultural order through the elements of 'foreign' influence, commerce, and women's roles. Amidst the Western winds of capitalism, Shanghai exemplified the early stages of China's capitalist development, making it an indispensable facet of Chinese modernity.

After 1949, under Communist policies, Shanghai was designated as an industrial hub, its former splendor washed away. It wasn't until the 1990s that China turned back to Shanghai in pursuit of modernity, propelling the city to prosperity once again.

This unprecedented city and economic force in Chinese history—how did it challenge and influence the broader Chinese society and culture? This book delves into the social and cultural history of Shanghai from 1843 to 1949, meticulously examining its finance, publishing, and modern retail industries. Yip Man-Sen vividly portrays China's first urban middle class through this exploration. In the early 20th century, when China's national role was relatively weak, this new affluent class, viewing commerce and consumption as patriotic endeavors, not only gained legitimacy within Confucian society but also became a driving force behind the transformation of Shanghai and a key player in the development of modern Chinese politics and nationalism.

The new often has roots in the old, and Yeh Wen-hsin argues that Shanghai has once again positioned itself at the heart of Chinese modernity, albeit with substantial efforts dedicated to unearthing its historical memories. Thus, to comprehend contemporary Shanghai, one must revisit the period prior to 1949—a Shanghai where Eileen Chang once lived, loved, and indulged. Whether the contemporary affluent class of Shanghai will once more assume a role in propelling national transformation might be glimpsed through the historical analysis presented in this book.

      上海的繁華輝煌，一開始卻是個「海上奇觀」。這座充滿傳奇的城市，在鴉片戰爭後的百餘年不僅由一個長江下游的縣城，一躍而成東亞數一數二的國際性通商巨埠，更以「洋」、「商」與「女性」共同挑戰與改變中國傳統文化的秩序。西風中的資本主義，在上海長出最能代表中國早期資本主義發展的面貌，中國的現代性不能不談上海。一九四九年後，上海在共黨政策下，被賦予製造工業的角色，一代繁華洗盡，直到九○年代，中國又回到上海找尋現代性，上海再度成為繁華的代表。

　　這個中國歷史上史無前例的城市與經濟，對廣大中國的社會與文化構成什麼挑戰與影響？本書回顧一八四三年至一九四九年的上海社會文化史，透過細細考察上海的金融、出版和現代百貨業，葉文心生動描繪中國第一批城市中產階層。在國家角色尚弱的二十世紀初期，這個新富階層在從商與消費被視為愛國志業的觀念下，不僅取得在儒家社會的正當性，從而改變了上海， 更成為近代中國政治與民族主義發展的主要力量。

　　新的往往也是舊的，葉文心認為，上海如今再度回到中國現代性的核心位置，卻有不少力氣花在挖掘過去的歷史記憶。因此要瞭解今日之上海，必須回到一九四九年前，那個張愛玲曾經生活過也貪嗔癡過的上海。而當代上海新富階層，是否會再次扮演推動國家變遷的角色，或許可從本書的歷史分析窺見一二。

The history of modern Shanghai newspapers can be roughly divided into four periods. The first period (1850 to 1895) witnessed their birth and initial development as Shanghai as a city began to take shape, marking the preliminary development phase of Shanghai newspapers. The second period (1895 to 1915) saw a breakthrough in development, with the support of democratic political movements and the protection of foreign concessions. This period solidified the development pattern of Shanghai newspapers, which became a necessity in the daily lives of the citizens. The third period (1915 to 1937) was characterized by comprehensive and stable development. The fourth period (1937 to 1949) experienced contraction and stagnation due to two significant wars: the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War and the Chinese Civil War. During this time, freedom of speech was restricted, exacerbated by issues like inflation, imposing immense operational pressure on the newspaper industry. By 1949, with the change in the Chinese political landscape, commercial newspapers were placed under strict military control by the new regime, leading to an unprecedented depression in the newspaper industry.

This book compiles diverse historical materials, including archives from the Shanghai Municipal Archives, recollections of journalists, and articles from newspapers and magazines. It is divided into three main themes:

1. Newspaper Industry Overview, encompassing the basic characteristics of Shanghai's newspaper industry, the history of major newspapers in early 20th century Shanghai, and the functioning of newspaper industry associations.

2. Newspaper Staff, providing insights into various types of staff in newspapers, such as educational qualifications, working hours, efficiency, and salaries required by printing workers. The book also includes contracts for proofreaders at that time, shedding light on the requirements for proofreading work. Information about the treatment of newspaper staff can be referenced from a comparison table of employee benefits between Xinwen Bao and Shen Bao, detailing the number of employees in each department, work standards, and remuneration methods.

3. News Editing and Reporting, covering information collection in newspapers, and regulations related to editing news. It provides a detailed introduction to the production process of newspapers, including gathering news, editing, printing, and distribution, all meticulously documented.

近代上海報刊的歷史，大致可分為四個時期。第一個時期（1850年至1895年）誕生與初步發展，隨著上海都市的形成，上海報刊進入初步發展時期。第二個時期（1895年至1915年）突破性的發展，依靠著民主政治運動與外國租界的庇蔭，上海報刊發展格局奠定，報刊已成市民日常生活必需品。第三個時期（1915年至1937年）全面穩定的發展。第四個時期（1937年至1949年）萎縮與停滯，此時期發生了兩次的戰爭：抗戰爆發與國共內戰，致使言論空間遭到限縮，加上通貨膨脹問題，帶給報業極大的營運壓力，至1949年中國政局轉易，商業報紙遭到新政權軍管封閉，報界出現空前的蕭條。

本書收集史料種類多元，如上海市檔案館檔案、報人回憶、報章雜誌文章等，分為三個主題：
