洋务派主张效法西方,学习他们的先进技艺,增强清朝的军事和经济实力,以便平内乱、御外侮,确保封建统治。在“中学为体,西学为用”的思想指导下,开展了历时30多年的洋务运动,在人才的引进、培养、选拔、使用方面做了大量的工作,为近代科学技术的发展做出了贡献。 The Westernizationists advocated emulating the West, learning their advanced skills and enhancing the military and economic power of the Qing Dynasty in order to level civil strife, resist foreign aggression and ensure feudal rule. Under the guidance of the thought of “learning from middle school and using Western learning”, the Westernization Movement, which lasted more than 30 years, has done a great deal of work on the introduction, cultivation, selection and use of talents and has made great contributions to the development of modern science and technology contribution.
