On the Cairo Declaration and Its Binding Force ——After executed the Cairo Declaration for 60 years

中国自19世纪中叶至20世纪中叶的历史是丧权失地的屈辱历史,但美国总统罗斯福却在开罗积极笼络蒋介石,并许诺帮助中国收复失地、获取世界强国地位。详述1943年开罗会议的召开经过和《开罗宣言》的内容,着重讨论《开罗宣言》在国际法上的拘束力问题,并揭示二战期间美英两强对中国的不同态度及其原因。

Based on a brief description of the humiliating Chinese history from the middle period of the nineteenth century to the middle period of the twentieth century, during which China lost a part of both its state sovereignty and its territories, this paper first reviews in detail the process of the conference at Cairo in 1943 and the contents of Cairo Declaration, and then highlights on the discussion about the binding force of the declaration under international law. This paper also analyzes the different attitudes and their reasons between the United States of America and the United Kingdom towards China during the Second World War.
