摘　　要：学术界一直认为 ,受《中英续议通商行船条约》关于“弃除领事裁判权”的内容的影响 ,清政府被迫屈从帝国主义的意志而进行了修订律法的活动。本文认为 ,“弃除领事裁判权”是中国提出的谈判要求 ,是近代中国社会变迁的必然选择 ,并不体现帝国主义的意志。清廷的修律决策不是《中英续议通商行船条约》影响的结果。It has widely been believed that imperialism forced the Qing government to rev ise its laws, influenced by the Renewed Treaty of Commerce and Navigation betwee n Britain and China, which prescribed abandoning consular jurisdiction. In this author's opinion, it was the Qing government that requested the negotiations to abandon consular jurisdiction. Revision of the law in the late Qing was an inevi table choice, and did not embody the will of the imperialism. According to the author, the decision to revise the law was not effected by The Renewed Treaty of Commerce and Navigation between Britain and China, and the article abandoning c onsular jurisdiction should not be considered a turning point as we have believe d in the past.
