Abstract
This article examines the views of Chinese collaborators on Pan-Asianism, race, and culture during 1939—1945. It depicts the changing attitudes of Chinese collaborators toward the Anglo-American nations, and discusses how the Pacific War led to the revival of the concept of Pan-Asianism and the appearance of a racial and cultural discourse among Chinese collaborators. Also, it analyzes the nature of collaborators’ discourse on race and culture. This is an uncommon episode in twentieth-century Chinese history in which Chinese propaganda gave vent to racial sentiments.
