Image Reconstruction and the Reflection of Values in the Formation of National Traumatic Memories： A Review of Recent Anti-Japanese War Films and Teleplays in China

The cosmopolitan cultural behaviors employed by war films and teleplays in the reconstruction of national traumatic memories are worthy of understanding and respect. However, in present-day China, the quantity of Anti-Japanese War films and teleplays is abnormally high, and their values deeply enmeshed in a radical nationalism. The result is a general trend towards a ＂carnival of vengeful images.＂ Given the potential harms implicit in this situation, the question of just what kind of war narratives are appropriate for the contemporary circumstances of globalization should receive serious attention and reconsideration from society at large.

Lofty Expectations and Bitter Reality： Chinese Interpreters for the US Army during the Second World War, 1941-1945

Between 1941 and 1945, the Nationalist government supervised a program that trained more than 3,300 male college students and recent graduates to serve as interpreters for the US military in the China-Burma-India （CB1） Theater. These interpreters made the Sino-US alliance a reality by enabling American servicemen to communicate with other Chinese. But despite the program＇s operational success, interpreters suffered from intractable morale problems. Interpreters began their service with lofty expectations. Senior officials and intellectuals encouraged them to see themselves as central figures in China＇s struggle for nafonal rejuvenation. They would uplift the country by convincing American servicemen to see Chinese as equals and by introducing American technology, traits, and habits to the Chinese Army. It all sounded glorious to cadets undergoing training, but actual interpreter service proved bitterly disappointing to most young men. They found their monotonous duties unworthy of their position The Nationalist government, for its part, lacked the capacity to keep them clothed, paid, and fed. Their own compatriots--soldiers and civilians alike--regarded them with suspicion. Most frustrating of all, American soldiers refused to treat them as equals. By examining interpreter morale problems in China fronl 1941 to 1945, this article enriches our understanding of wartime interpreting, China in a global World War II, and sources of friction in the Sino-US alliance

中国周边外交:70年来的演变及其逻辑

任何国家的外交政策都是在主客观因素的互动过程中形成的,周边外交政策也概莫能外。中国的实力发展水平、所面临的时代环境与国际体系环境相互作用,使得中国周边外交在不同时期体现出不同特征。冷战时期是中国周边外交的酝酿期,世纪之交是形成期,中共十八大以来则是成熟期。在僵硬的冷战结构两极崩溃、中国实力走向强大的背景下,中国自身因素在塑造周边政策方面日益发挥更大的作用。但是,随着美国将中国确定为首要战略竞争对手,中国所面临的国际体系结构可能会重新趋于僵硬,未来周边外交仍然需要在总结过去经验和教训的基础上加以完善和提升。
