조선 북부 개항도시 鎭南浦의 中國領事館 조직과 그 位相

Abstract

This article examines in detail the organization of the Chinese Consulate in Jinnampo, a northern port city of Korea, from the late 19th to early 20th centuries. Firstly, I review the organization of it during the late Qing dynasty. It was established at the request of the first Chinese Minister to Korea appointed after the signing of the first modern treaty between Korea and China, Xu Shoupeng(徐壽朋). When Japan established a Resident-General in Korea, Chinese government withdrew its legation and dispatched Consul General Ma Tingliang(馬廷亮). was the Consul General who was under the command of the Minister to Japan, but due to the unique status of the Korean Empire, he held a position equivalent to that of a minister. The organization of Jinnampo was given more importance compared to the Wonsan. Secondly, I describe its organization during the early years of the Republic of China. Unlike during the late Qing Dynasty, personnel changes were frequent. On the other hand, there were hardly any personnel changes the Consulate in Wonsan. In the reorganization carried out in 1927 due to a shortage of budget, the Wonsan was maintained, but the Jinnampo was transformed into a office, due to the quick response of the personnel of the Wonsan. Finally, I examine the organization of it before and after the Anti-Chinese Riot. In early 1928, Xu Yuanda(徐源達), a officer to the Consulate General, was dispatched to Jinampo and handled official business. He difficulties due to a lack of personnel and shortage of budget necessary for the operation of the office. In the end, he took responsibility for the Pyongyang Incident and was dismissed from his position. Yang You(楊佑), who had worked at the Wonsan for more than 20 years, was dispatched to it as an assistant consul to the Consulate General, where he played a practical role as the person responsible for post-riot handling.
