自1962年福特基金會事件之後，日本中國研究界注意到自我反省的意識，帶來了一波「學術社群的主體性何在」的思維。而隨著文革運動氣氛而逐漸昇高，此一思維轉變為整個日本中國學界自我批判與左翼革命思維高峰。本文從「自我主體性」的觀點，以當時的研討會與代表性著作為研究資料，發掘當時的中國研究者的思想系譜，是將中國文革放在什麼樣的脈絡下來理解。在這段時期的主要特色是：知識論上的主體反省，藉由社會運動與研究者生命歷程結合，而且文革對於日本研究者的意義並非固定，而是在歷次事件中都有改變。研究者逐漸從「我與中國的關係為何？」的問題轉變為直接研究「中國是什麼？」，並由此建立自己的主體性。本文以此視角貫串，將此一歷史嵌合進入中國研究界1962年的福特基金會事件，以及1970年代末開始的「再評價」運動之中。瞭解這波造成整體日本中國研究界甚至整體思想界至今社會主義最大的高峰，不僅能對整體日本中國研究做出瞭解，更能對現在的日本民族主義思維有所認識。

Since the Ford Foundation event in 1962, Japanese China-studies community started to notice thoughts on the identity of academic community. With the Cultural Revolution, these thoughts transformed to become the epiphany of the community's self-criticism and Marxism. This article examined academic discussion and representative research from the perspective of "self identify" to explore the philosophy of China-studies back then. The characteristics of the period are reflection of self identify in ontology, and entering the life of researchers through social movements. Moreover, the meaning of the Cultural Revolution was inconsistent and changed over time. Researchers shifted their focus from "the relationship between Japan and China" to "what is China" and hence established their own identity. This article intends to study the history from the Ford Foundation event in 1962 to the re-evaluation movement in the late 1970's in order to understand the peak of socialism in Japanese China-studies community. It will also be beneficial to understand Japanese Nationalism.
