清末新政时期,在中西文化的交流与碰撞中,在内忧外患的压力下,清朝统治者不得不通过实行新政以自救。对于缠足等陋习,端方历来秉持的批判态度,也因新政的逐渐深入而不断加深,出国考察归来后,端方更是将缠足等陋习上升为影响国家富强的重要因素。在两江总督任职期间,端方为此颁布了一些措施,取得了相当的成效,对妇女解放,提高妇女地位有重要作用,同时也促进了中国社会的近代化。 During the period of the New Deal in the late Qing Dynasty, under the pressure of the internal and external problems in the exchange and collision of Chinese and Western cultures, the Qing rulers had to save themselves through the implementation of the New Deal. With regard to such bad habits as footbinding, the critical attitude that Duanfang has always upheld also continues to deepen as a result of the gradual deepening of the New Deal. After returning home for inspection, Duanfang even increased such bad habits as footbinding as an important factor affecting the prosperity and prosperity of the country. During the tenure of the Governor of Liangjiang, Duanfang promulgated some measures to that end and achieved considerable results, which played an important role in liberating women and improving the status of women. It also promoted the modernization of Chinese society.
