Description

This article critically reexamines the assumption that the Russo-Japanese War (1904-5) significantly influenced Southeast Asian nationalists and their anti-colonial movements. A survey of the region finds that, with only two exceptions--the Philippines and Vietnam--the war made only a minimal impression at the time. Nationalists in the Philippines and Vietnam responded positively to the Sino-Japanese War (1894-95), actively pursuing Japanese aid as a result. Contradicting existing assumptions, the historical record reveals that in the immediate aftermath of the Russo-Japanese War, most nationalists in the Philippines and Vietnam became alienated from Japan when this rising Asian power turned its back on fellow Asians in favor of joining the Euro-American club of turn-of-the-century imperialists. This article ultimately suggests that assumptions about the war's impact may be more a reflection of Euro-American fears of Japan's rise to power than of its true legacy in Southeast Asia. Assumptions of Influence: Japan on Southeast Asia
