摘 要: 一般来说,英国在中国取得治外法权始于鸦片战争以后中英《南京条约》的签订。实际上,从踏上中国领土的第一天起,英国殖民者就不断制造事端,同时又以种种手段破坏中国的司法主权,而他们所谓的中国法律落后的借口,根本不能掩盖其侵略中国的真实目的。 Generally speaking, British extraterritorial rights in China started when the Treaty of Nanking was signed following the Opium War. In fact, from the first day they set food on Chinese territory, the British Colonists had ceaselessly created disturbances and violated China's judicial sovereignty by this means or that. Their pretext that China's laws were out-of-date could by no means mask their real intention of invading China.
