Preface
This volume originated in a conference on the Sino-Japanese War of –
held in Vancouver, Canada, in December . A number of presentations
were concerned with an aspect of the war that has received little attention,
Chinese collaboration with the Japanese occupiers. What emerged was a
highly complex picture of collaboration. Common to all papers was the
theme of necessary accommodation to a powerful enemy. But how far
accommodation went toward collaboration, or willing, let alone enthusiastic,
association with the enemy, which is what the word collaborationimplies in
its more common pejorative sense, remained the challenging question. The
essays in this collection suggest how far along the spectrum of collaboration
various political actors and social groups in China went as they accommo-
dated themselves to the realities they faced.
The conference, in conception and organization, was the work of Larry
N. Shyu of the University of New Brunswick, Fredericton. Generous sup-
port was provided by the Joint Committee on Chinese Studies of the Amer-
ican Council of Learned Societies, the Military and Strategic Studies Pro-
gram of the University of New Brunswick, the Historical Society for Twen-
tieth Century China (HSTCC), and the Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation in
Taipei, Taiwan.
In the production of this volume, we wish to thank Dr. Zhao Jian of the
Nagoya University of Commerce and Business Administration for his time
and expertise. We thank Mrs. Wendy Benedetti of the Department of His-
tory, McMaster University, for her assistance. We also want to acknowledge
the many excellent suggestions offered by the outside readers of the manu-
script of this volume. Finally, we extend our appreciation to Ms. Muriel Bell
and her helpful staff at Stanford University Press.
