自由派知识分子与国民党的“剿匪”

The Liberal Intellectuals' Responses on the Guomindang's Policy of “Suppressing the Chinese Communists”

九一八事件后,胡适、丁文江合作发表《所谓剿匪问题》一文,十分凝炼和鲜明地聚焦了自由派知识分子对于国民党"剿匪"政策的公开质疑。但随着红军第五次反围剿失利,被迫进行长征所引起的时局巨大变动,他们中许多人迅即见风使舵,重新站到了国民党"剿匪"的旗下,由质疑转向期盼"全歼残匪",其内部的分化也成了不可避免的事。西安事变后胡适、张季鸾诸人虽最终接受了国民党废止"剿匪"政策的现实,但与范长江、王芸生等人的主张毕竟不可等量齐观。国民党"剿匪"政策虽废,反共之心仍存,自由派知识分子既不脱"恐共"痼疾,复不能躬身自反,在此后全面抗战中反共浪潮迭起,其将继续追随国民党的政治取向,就是不可避免的了。

After the September 18 th Incident,HU Shi and DING Wenjiang jointly published an essay entitled'On the Issue of Suppressing Bandits'('bandit'was used by Guomindang to refer to the Chinese Communists),raising the query on the Guomindang’s policy of suppressing the Chinese Communists.In 1934,the Red Army failed in their fifth resistance against the military enclosure,and were forced to embark the Long March.The liberal intellectuals’responses changed abruptly,among whom those expressed their support for the Guomindang and for the complete suppression on the Communists inevitably split with others with disapproval of the suppression.After the Xi’an Incident in 1936,HU Shi,ZHANG Jiluan and some other liberal intellectuals accepted the fact that Guomindang abolished the policy of suppressing Chinese Communists,but their standpoint was quite different from that of other liberal intellectuals represented by FAN Changjiang and WANG Yunsheng.Although Guomindang temporarily claimed to abolish it,the intention to suppress the Communists was unchanged.In this situation,the liberal intellectuals were stuck in the fear for the Communists,could not examine their own limitations,and would inevitably follow Guomindang’s anti-Communist waves during the full-scale resistance against the Japanese imperialist army.
