抗战时期国民政府及知识界对大泰族主义之回应

The Influence of Big-Thailandism to China during the Anti-Japanese War

抗战期间,在日本的怂恿下,泰国公然宣称我国南方几省为泰族发源地,要收复失地,还派人到我国云南境内傣族地区活动,并于1939年6月将暹罗改称泰国。这种大泰族主义言行引起了处在艰难抗战中的重庆国民政府、西南地方政府及中国知识界的警惕,引发了我国政府及知识界对边疆问题、民族问题的反思。重庆国民政府和西南地方政府逐渐重视西南民族和边疆问题,开展一系列民族调查活动,强化中华民族的民族意识。流寓西南的爱国知识分子,或强调"中华民族是一个",或强调中华民族的统一性或整体性,对大泰族主义侵略言行予以了有力驳斥。国民政府和中国知识界对大泰族主义的回应和反击,对于维护我国多民族国家主权和领土完整,团结全国各族人民争取抗战胜利都具有一定的积极意义。

During the Anti-Japanese War,Thailand declared openly that several provinces in southern China were the cradleland of Thai people,and was to reoccupy the 'lost' territory under Japanese government's instigation.At the same time,people were sent to conduct subversive activities in the area of Dai nationality in Yunnan,and Siam was changed into Thailand in June 1939.From the central government in Chongqing,the local governments in southwestern China to the academic community,people kept a high vigilance againt such absurdity of the Big-Thailandism.They responded with a counterattack against such aggression,and with a reflection upon policies on the frontier area and ethnic-group management.All these are very positive in maintaining China's soverengnty and the integrity of the territory,and in uniting Chinese people of all nationalities to win the Anti-Japanese War as well.
