Liu Feng stated that in May 1931, Itagaki Seishiro, a colonel equivalent of Kwantung Army, was responsible for devising the one-night provocation and occupation of major cities. In June, Japanese spies, Nakamura Shintaro and etc, were caught, and later shot dead. At Mt Wanbaoshan, near Changchun, Koreans forcefully dug a ditch for irrigating their fields. One month later, on July 2nd, Japanese police shot dead Chinese peasants who were in conflicts with Korean. Further, Japanese incited massive ethnic cleansing against Chinese on Korean peninsula. Chinese newspaper pointed out that it could very well be the signal portending the start of full Japanese invasion against China. On July 12th, Chiang Kai-shek instructed Zhang Xueliang by stating that "this is not a time for war [against Japan]". To quell Shi Yousan rebellion in Henan Prov, Zhang Xueliang relocated 60,000 more troops to northern China, in addition to 120,000 troops that were steered away on Sept 18th 1930 from Manchuria for the "War of the Central Plains". Beginning from July 1931, Japanese army conducted military exercises without notifying Chinese in advance. Per Bi Wanwen, 2nd column of Shenyang garrison army of Japanese Kwantung Army had shipped over heavy cannons in July in preparation for attacking Shenyang city. Japanese newspaper reported that Japanese infantry ministry chief had called for war against China on Aug 4th 1931.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 2 Abstract Abstract This thesis considers the Chinese Blueshirts organisation from 1932 to 1938 in the context of Chiang Kaishek's attempts to unify and modernise China. It sets out the terms of comparison between the Blueshirts and Fascist organisations in Europe and Japan, indicating where there were similarities and differences of ideology and practice, as well as establishing links between them. It then analyses the reasons for the appeal of Fascist organisations and methods to Chiang Kaishek. Following an examination of global factors, the emergence of the Blueshirts from an internal point of view is considered. As well as assuming many of the characteristics of a Fascist organisation, especially according to the Japanese model and to some extent to the European model, the Blueshirts were in many ways typical of the power-cliques which were already an integral part of Chinese politics.

Hong Chengchou was the Ming Viceroy of Jifu and Liaoning 薊遼 總 督 from 1639 until his capture by the forces of Hungtaiji in the fall of Songshan 松山 in 1642. After the rebel occupation of Beijing and the death of the CZ emperor, Hong assumed official appointment under the Qing and went on to become the most important former Ming official to assist in the Qing conquest of all of China (see Li Guangtao 1948a; Wang Chen-main 1999; Li Xinda 1992). Many of his very numerous surviving memorials have been published in MQSL and MQDA. In the present col- lection of 67 memorials, 13 represent his service as Viceroy of Jiangnan and “Pacifier of the South” 招撫南方 from 1645 through 1648.

  • Sino-Japanese News **
    ** sino-Japanese News ** International symposium in Beijinq. "The History of Sino-Japan­ ese Relations over the Past Century" was the topic of an internation­ al symposium--attended by Chinese, Japanese, and Americans--at the Twenty-First Century Hotel in Beijing. It was sponsored primarily by the Institute of Modern History of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, along with the Chinese Research Group on the War of Resist­ ance Against Japan, the Society for the Study of Japanese Aggression against China (centered at Southern Illinois University), and SIU. Meetings were held for four days, January 4-7, 1993, including one day (January 6) spent at the Marco Polo Bridge and the nearby Memori­ al Hall of the War of Resistance Against Japan. As is often the case with scholarly conferences hosted in China, there was a long list of papers given and even more participants in attendance. There were 75 PRC representatives there, five listed as coming from Taiwan (though only three actually appeared), four from Hong Hong, one from Macao, nine from Japan (though one of them has long been living in Taiwan), seven from the united States (three of them members of the Sino-Japanese Studies Group), and eight names of people listed as "observers" (two from Japan and six from the PRC). In all, over one hundred persons were in attendance. There was an overwhelming number of papers concerned with the second Sino-Japanese War and Japanese atrocities. These were of widely uneven quality, some exceedingly interesting, others little more than shoddy politics, and still other disgracefully unresearch­ ed.
