尾崎秀实的中国研究和中国认识

Hotsumi Ozaki's China Studies and his Views about China

既具有共产主义的内质又担任过近卫内阁参议和满铁调查部特别研究员的尾崎秀实,在被捕入狱前出版了6部中国研究的专著及上百篇的论文,以在中国问题上不同凡响的见解而为世人瞩目。他在揭示了中国近代社会半殖民地半封建这两个基本特性的同时,还指出了民族解放运动是中国社会的主要动向,这一认识可谓超越了所有同时代的日本中国研究家。

Hotsumi Ozaki was at once a Japanese journalist, a communist, an advisor to Fumimaro Konoe＇s cabinet, a special researcher for the Manchurian Rail Department, and a distinguished sinologist. Before his arrest he had published six scholarly monographs on China and some 100 articles. His views about China were seen as unique to his time. He not only captured the two basic characteristics of modern China as a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, but also pointed out that nationalist liberation would be the main thrust of China＇s social upheaval. In this realization he was unmatched among all the Japanese sinologists of his time.
