“十四年抗戰(zhàn)”入教材

"The revision is a correction," said Li, explaining that the six years of resistance before 1937 -- which included the establishement of the Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army and the Suiyuan Campaign -- is ignored if the clash is described as lasting eight years. He believes the run-up to the war was gradual, and setting the starting point as 1937 is not completely accurate.

“此次的提法更改是一次修正，”李宗遠(yuǎn)說(shuō)道。據(jù)他解釋，如果說(shuō)是抗戰(zhàn)八年，那么1937年之前的六年抗戰(zhàn)就被忽略了，如東北抗聯(lián)和綏遠(yuǎn)抗戰(zhàn)等。他認(rèn)為，抗日戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)是個(gè)漸進(jìn)過(guò)程，將1937年作為抗戰(zhàn)起點(diǎn)并不完全準(zhǔn)確。

According to Li, the Communist Party of China (CPC) issued five documents to oppose the Japanese invasion immediately after the September 18 Incident, and declared war against Japan in April 1932. Li said the Museum of the War of Chinese People’s Resistance Against Japanese Aggression adopted the 14-year definition back in 2005, on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the end of the war.

據(jù)李宗遠(yuǎn)介紹，中國(guó)共產(chǎn)黨在“九一八事變”之后便立即發(fā)表了反對(duì)日本侵略的五個(gè)文件，并于1932年4月向日本宣戰(zhàn)。李宗遠(yuǎn)表示，早在2005年抗戰(zhàn)勝利60周年紀(jì)念日時(shí)，中國(guó)人民抗日戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)紀(jì)念館就已經(jīng)采用了“14年抗戰(zhàn)”的說(shuō)法。

With regards to the history between 1931 and 1937, Chinese historians used to focus more on domestic issues, such as Soviet areas, encirclement campaigns and the Long March, Li said. Nowadays, however, scholars have revised their evaluation of anti-Japanese campaigns by the CPC and Kuomintang during this era.

李宗遠(yuǎn)表示，關(guān)于1931-1937年期間的歷史，我國(guó)歷史學(xué)家們先前更多地關(guān)注蘇區(qū)、反“圍剿”、長(zhǎng)征等國(guó)內(nèi)問(wèn)題。而今，學(xué)者們對(duì)于中國(guó)共產(chǎn)黨及國(guó)民黨在這一階段的抗戰(zhàn)行為，修正了他們的評(píng)價(jià)。
