日本青年群体的对华认知:现状、影响因素及应对

The Japanese Youth Group’s Perception of China:Current Status, Influencing Factors and Countermeasures

日本是中国的重要邻国,构建稳定而健康的中日关系不仅关乎两国的国家命运和人民福祉,而且对东亚地区乃至世界的和平与发展同样具有重要意义。21世纪以来,特别是2010年以后,东亚地区进入前所未有的"中日两强"时代,在此背景下,日本的对华认知出现了明显的偏差,这也导致了中日民众产生了情感温度差。但日本青年群体的对华认知却出现了有别于其他年龄层的特征,不仅表现出对中国经济实力的认可,且对华亲近感也高于其他群体。这与中国崛起的客观现实及新媒体时代的信息传播途径等因素有关,值得我们进一步关注。

Japan is an important neighbor of China. Building a stable and healthy Sino-Japanese relationship is not only related to the national destiny and people’s well-being of the two countries, but also has important significance to the peace and development of East Asia and the world. Since the 21st century, especially after 2010, East Asia has entered an unprecedented era of "the two powers of China and Japan". Under this background, Japan’s perception of China has shown a clear deviation, which has also led to the emotional temperature difference between Chinese and Japanese people. However, the Japanese youth group’s perception of China is different from other age groups. It not only shows recognition of China’s economic strength, but also has a higher sense of closeness to China than other groups. This is related to factors such as the objective reality of China’s rise and information dissemination in the era of new media, and deserves our further attention.
