原敬的日美协调外交构想

Hara Takasi's Diplomatic Conception of Japan-US Coordination

原敬以"时势论"和"实力论"的政治理念为基础,通过访美考察,形成对美认识,这种认识对于原敬的日美关系认识产生重要影响,以其对美认识为前提,原敬指出,在对外关系中要特别重视日美关系。针对日俄战争后日美关系之恶化,原敬强调要缓和日美关系,尤其是"满洲"政策要认真考虑美国因素之重要影响。一战期间,原敬以其政治理念,进一步阐释日美关系,强调日美间要避免战争,认为日本要解决中国问题,日英同盟或其他同盟均无助益,必须要取得美国谅解,与美国保持亲密关系,进而提出日美协调外交构想,并期望通过与美国共同出兵符拉迪沃斯托克开启两国合作之开端。原敬并非是无条件实现日美协调,而是在维护日本国家利益,即日本在华传统权益,尤其是所谓"满洲"权益的基础上,以美国承认日本之特殊地位为前提。原敬的日美协调外交构想作为其对美外交政策的思想基础,促使原敬内阁成立后确立以日美协调为核心的外交政策。

Based on the theories of＂Trend of the Times＂and＂Power＂,Hara Takasi formed his view of the US after his visit,which had an important impact on his understanding of the Japan-US relations.Based on his understanding of the United States,he pointed out that special emphasis should be placed on the relationship between Japan and the United States in external relations.In response to the deterioration of Japan-US relations following the Japanese-Russian war,Hara Takasi emphasized the need to ease Japan-US relations.He thought that Japanese Manchurian policy must consider the important influence of US.During World War I,he explained his ideas further and emphasized that Japan-US relations should be close and the war between them should be avoided in order to deal with China.The premise of his diplomatic conception of Japan-US coordination was that US should recognize Japan＇s special status and its traditional rights in China,especially the so-called Manchuria rights.This diplomatic conception was the basis of Japan＇s foreign policy during Hara Takasi cabinet and the core of it was Japan＇s national interests.
