利用汇丰银行在华纸币流通量数据，探讨民国时期政治稳定与国家建设，挑战英国银行在华未遇抵抗的普遍观点，并揭示针对外国银行的新档案证据。
This article utilizes the local banknote circulation volumes of HSBC, the largest foreign bank in China, as a gauge with which to explore political stability and state-building during the Republican era (1912–1935). It will challenge the prevailing view that British banks faced little resistance in China through the 1920s–1930s, and expose new archival evidence on the perception of, and mobilization against, foreign banks.
