摘要
赖肖尔是第二次世界大战后美国日本研究的奠基人,并于1961至1966年间担任美国驻日大使。作为肯尼迪政府任命的一位学者大使,他针对当时日本舆论中的反美倾向,积极地在日本开展意识形态外交。本文首先回顾赖肖尔出任驻日大使的历史背景,然后从他建立与日本媒体的密切关系、恢复与日本反对派的接触,以及展开与日本知识分子的近代化论争等方面揭示其对日外交的实质。本文希望通过赖肖尔外交这个案例,反映冷战时期美国对其盟国所实施的意识形态外交,以丰富冷战史和美日关系史的研究。
This article studies Edwin O. Reischauer's diplomatic activities during his tenure as American Ambassador to Japan from 1961 to 1966. Reischauer's diplomatic practice was characterized by his dialogue with the Japanese, especially with people from the press, opposition parties, labor unions, intellectuals and college students. The article argues that Reischauer's dialogue with Japan reflected American ideological policies toward Japan during the Cold War era and contributed to the management of U.S.-Japan alliance by using soft power.
