评大西广《关于钓鱼岛主权之争的思考》

Reviewing Hiroshi Ohnichi’s “Some Thinking of the Sovereignty Disputes over the Diaoyu Islands”

钓鱼岛领土争议在中日两国引发起民族主义的惊天骇浪,两国知识界也被卷进这场国权之争,双方学者各执一词,剑拔弩张。但是,在日本,也能够听到一些有历史洞见力和远见卓识的学者,站在公正的立场上所发表的具有良知和良识的声音。京都大学名誉教授、庆应义塾大学教授,日本著名经济外交研究专家大西广就是其中的代表人物。今年8月27日,他在由京都大学经济学研究科东亚经济研究中心主办的东亚经济研究通讯《京大东亚中心新闻简报(第432号)》上发表了署名文章《关于钓鱼岛主权之争的思考》。在该文中,作者客观公允地表达了自己的主张。以下,笔者就其主要观点略作评述,以飨读者。

With a wave of nationalism sparked by the sovereignty disputes over the Diaoyu Islands, the Chinese and Japanese intelligentsia is involved in heated argumentation, leading the scholars concerned to own statements and confronting each other. There are, however, some visionaries with historical insights who express their views with fair conscience and knowledge. Hiroshi Ohnichi, a famous Japanese expert in economic diplomacy, is one of the representatives in this regard. The scholar published an article ＂Some Thinking of the Sovereignty Disputes over the Diaoyu Islands＂ in News Briefings of Kyoto University East Asia Center, which is the bulletin of East Asia economy research sponsored by Economics Research Department of Kyoto University East Asian Economy Research Center. He expresses his views on the bilateral issue in a quite objective way. The authors of this essay present their comments on Hiroshi Ohnichi ＇ s article.
