| Research Abstract |
This project tried to analyze how Japanese and Chinese saw themselves and their enemy, how those perceptions influenced their policy-makings, how policy-makers' perceptions acted upon the structur of interntional society.
Hata asked why Japanese and Chinese failed to limit the Lugouqioconflict. Althought Hata agrees that Japanese China policy since Meiji-period made the disaster, he found that there were many psychological factors involved, misperceptions, miscalculations, distrust, hostility, for example.
He reconstructed series of events of first three weeks just after the Lugouqiao incident, found that there were indicision on both sides, that Chinese distrusted Japanese policy-makers, miscalculated mutual military powers, that Japanese misunderstood Chinese intents, distrusted Guomingtang foreign policy, and filnally hostility on both sides made the crisis mismanaged.
Yumoto found that there were some chinese intellectuals who caluculated how much economic resources and infrastructures chinese needed to win the war, insisted Chinese could not go into the war until they achieve modernization. Yumoto thinks that their voices influenced Chinese policy-makers.
