摘要

本文研究了从第一次世界大战爆发到太平洋战争期间,美国企业、技术以及相关商业组织和工程团体在中国的活动,并解释了这些活动是如何帮助中国与世界建立联系的。该书借鉴了谢尔曼·科克伦教授的著作《遭遇中国网络》中的“网络”概念,但将其范围扩大到包括管理和竞争层面的活动,并将中美关系置于跨国视野中。本文以美国亚洲协会、中国美国商会和中美工程师协会为例,运用多档案方法考察了中国在国际化方面的主要尝试,以展示这些网络如何在中美关系的发展中发挥重要作用。本文还讨论了标准化、“科学管理”以及企业家和工程师的专业性在影响网络构建方面的问题。

China and the United States: Business, Technology, and Networks, 1914–1941
This paper studies the activities of American enterprises, technology, and related business organizations and engineering groups in China from the outbreak of World War i to the Pacific War and explains how these activities helped establish connections between China and the world. It borrows the concept of “networks” from Professor Sherman Cochran’s extraordinary book titled Encountering Chinese Networks, but broadens the scope of the term to include activity at the level of management and competition, as well as placing Sino-American relations in transnational perspective. Using a multi-archival approach to examine China’s major attempts at internationalization, this article focuses on the cases of the American Asiatic Association, the American Chamber of Commerce of China, and the Association of Chinese and American Engineers to show how these networks played important roles in the development of Chinese-American relations. It also discusses the issues of standardization, “scientific management,” and professionalism of entrepreneurs and engineers in influencing network making.
