甲午战争以后中日军人意识演变述略

The Evolution of Chinese and Japanese Servicemen's Vocational Consciousness after the Sino-Japanese War(1894–1985)

甲午一役后,日军军人意识得以进一步提升,这是其在日俄战争中取得完胜的重要因素。此后,日军更沿着军国主义路线狂飙突进,埋下了葬送自身的种子。20世纪初的中国军队,限于政治、社会、经济等多方面属性,其军人意识总体上乏善可陈,但其间可称亮点的是中国共产党领导的人民军队,较为重视军人精神的培育,尤其在纪律意识上,多有着意。

Japanese soldiers＇ vocational consciousness was further revived after the Sino-Japanese War, which serves as a vital factor contributing to Japan＇s outright victory in the Russo-Japanese War （1904-1905）. Since then militarism steered Japan unrestrainedly towards the verge of precipice. The vocational consciousness of Chinese army in the early 20th century was generally undeserving of any serious discussion mainly due to political, social and economic restraints. One exception is that the people＇s army led by the Communist Party of China attached great importance to the cultivation of servicemen＇s vocational consciousness, with a special emphasis on the soldiers＇ sense of discipline.
