Second Sino-Japanese War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Second Sino-Japanese War (1937–1945) was a major war fought between the Republic of China and the Empire of Japan, both before and during World War II. Nevertheless the Japanese prospect of transferring their troops to fight the Americans was in vain and they only committed the Guandong Army from Manchuria in their "Sho plan", which later facilitated the Soviet advancement after the Soviet war declaration on August 8, 1945. The Japanese troops in China formally surrendered on September 9, 1945 and by the provisions of the Cairo Conference of 1943 the lands of Manchuria, Taiwan and the Pescadores Islands reverted to China. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Second_Sino-Japanese_War   (6954 words)

The Daily Star Web Edition Vol. 5 Num 322 The second Sino-Japanese war (1937-45) was caused by the Japanese militarists' aim to expand territory to relieve the problem of overpopulation and to procure badly needed natural resources. It is interesting to note that most Japanese school text books use the word "advances" or "expansion" in place of "invasion." Besides, Japanese youth of today see Japan more as a victim than as an aggressor in the second world war, and their knowledge of the war appears to be meagre. The Chinese fear is based on their conviction that Japanese society is intrinsically an introverted society convinced of its cultural, economic, and technological superiority, and of its ability to fill the "power vacuum" left by the Soviet withdrawal from the region. www.thedailystar.net /2005/04/24/d50424020326.htm   (1380 words)

Historical Notes Japanese advancement into the region was now explained in terms of future world domination (by controlling the resource-rich tropics), of anti-colonialism (by returning Asia to Asians), of international justice (by ending the exploitation of the "Yellow race" by the "White race"), and--if you will excuse the anachronism--of "the end of history" (by defeating Western civilization). Japanese writers are fond of pointing out the irony that it was the men who followed the women and legitimate businesses that followed prostitution in the history of Japanese migration to Southeast Asia. In 1922, a Japanese plantation owner called Ohira Genshi built a shrine on his property for the worship of a talisman of the Ise Shrine, which is dedicated to the mythical imperial ancestress Amaterasu, the most exalted of all Shinto deities. www.aems.uiuc.edu /HTML/UAS/Tsu.html   (5332 words)

Japanese Views of the Second Sino-Japanese War The impact on China of the second Sino-Japanese War (which includes the Pacific War) was also pivotal, though it was followed by several decades of civil war and political upheaval. For several months--from November through January--and throughout the area of the Japanese advance, its inhabitants--civilians and disarmed prisoners-of-war alike--were raped, tortured, and indiscriminately slaughtered by soldiers who were themselves brutalized by their superiors and released to vent their rage on a helpless population. The hardships of World War II receded into the past, and for the younger generation, especially, the earlier Fifteen Year War, so-called, with China from 1931 to 1945, was a dead issue. www.east-asian-history.net /textbooks/MJ/war_views.htm   (3333 words)
