Different appraisals and corresponding attitudes coexist, based on different cognitions and positions, toward the 1911 Revolution of China in the Japanese society. The Japanese government believes during the time that denying the divine-right theory of kingship would be bound to jeopardize the survival of the Japanese royal family, as well as the order in Korea under Japanese ruling. Thus, three principles listed below have formed the basic stance of the Japanese government during the outbreak of the Revolution: (1) oppose the revolution; (2) induce the Qing government to implement constitutional reform; (3) expand the Japanese rights and interests in China.On the other hand, in the Japanese society, in addition to a small portion of its people in favor of the government policies, most of them held the attitude of sympathy toward the Chinese Revolution. Activities in support of the revolution, which varied from person to person, include the participation of training of the new Chinese army, thinking of the new army as among one of them, or even participating in the Revolution personally in order to protect the new Chinese army joining the Revolution from destruction. In addition, some socialist followers also had resonance with the Chinese revolutionary ideals and thus actively supported the Revolution. |
