ABSTRACT

The Chinese People’s War of Resistance against Japanese aggression is the only national liberation war that ended with the complete victory of the Chinese nation in modern Chinese history. Regarding the Sino-Soviet Non-aggression Treaty, China was once regarded as a unilateral beneficiary. As for the Sino-Soviet Treaty of Friendship and Alliance, for quite a long period of time, academia held a positive attitude toward it. Regarding the Munich scheme in the Far East and the appeasement policy of Britain and America: most believed that the British and American policies toward China and Japan in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War were twofold: one was to compromise with Japan, and the other was to aid China and restrict Japan. The traditional view is that Britain, the United States and other countries did have the scheme of selling China and the proposed “Pacific Conference” is evidence.
