太平洋战争与中国的大国地位

The Pacific War and China's Big-power Status

太平洋战争爆发后,中国的抗日战争与世界反法西斯战争融为一体而具有了世界意义,国民政府为提高中国的国际地位进行了卓有成效的外交努力,美国对中国作用的重视,这些因素使中国取得了大国的地位。尽管战时中国的大国地位有其局限性,但并不能因此而否定其积极意义。即使取得了大国地位,也并不表明在大国关系中就能够获得平等地位。在世界历史中,根本就不存在所谓平等的大国。中国大国地位的取得源于中国人民不屈不挠、永不言败的民族精神,而这一无形的精神因素又是最不稳定最易消失的。中国内部本身两个政权、两个军队、两个战场的存在就更加剧了这种不稳定性。只有如此认识中国的大国地位,方可解释中国在战争中作为一个大国所遭受的不平等待遇。

After the Pacific War broke out, China＇s resistance war against Japan bore the global meaning as its integration with the Antifascist War of the world, the Nationalist government made the highly effective diplomatic efforts and the United States started to recognize and attach importance on China＇s effect. Based on all these factors China obtained its big-power status. The positive meaning of China＇s big-power status could not be denied although it had limitation during the wartime. Even though China obtained the big-power status, it did not mean that China could hold equal status among big--power relationships. In the history of the world there were never so-called equal big-power relationships existed. The acquirement of China＇s big-power status resulted from Chinese dauntless and never yielding ethos, however this invisible spirit factor is most instable and easily disappeared. The existence of two regimes, two armies, two battlefields inside China worsened this kind of instability.
