Abstract

The leftist terrorist incidents of the early 1950s have commonly been characterized as the result of the JCP’s policy of armed revolution formulated under the guidance of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the Cominform. However, as this chapter shows, the early anti-American radicalization of JCP members was not primarily caused by external orders or conflicts within the party leadership. Zengakuren students developed a virulently anti-American discourse that the party leadership sought to repress but later adopted after 1951, while Korean League members took part in armed clashes with authorities well before the JCP’s military turn. While the Cominform and CCP’s interventions accelerated the JCP’s radicalization, they should be understood as reinforcing factors reacting to, and building upon, existing tendencies.

While Scalapino recognizes that internal factors were at play in the JCP’s radicalization in the early 1950s, he downplays their significance by stressing that ‘official party pronouncements during this period all gave fundamental support to extremist activities.’ For an overview of US Cold War policy in Japan and Asia, see John Dower, ‘Occupied Japan and the Cold War in Asia,’ in John Dower, Japan in War and Peace (New York: New Press, 1993), 155–207.

    After imperial Japan annexed Korea in 1910, Koreans were considered Japanese subjects externally but non-Japanese (gaichijin) internally through the household registry system. Robert Rickett traces the shifts in GHQ and Japanese policies regarding Korean nationality after the dissolution of the Japanese empire into the following phases: 1. Treatment as refugees (from August 1945 to early 1947); 2. Management through the Alien Registration Ordinance wherein Koreans could be treated as both Japanese and Korean nationals (from May 1947 to March 1948); 3. A more stringent policy to keep the unruly minority down, stemming from the violent protests over Korean schools (from April 1948 to early 1950); 4. The culmination of the occupation-era management of Koreans resulting in their being stripped of Japanese nationality with the regaining of Japan’s independence (from June 1950 to April 1952).

Kang Sang Jung recounts one such raid in Kumamoto that he witnessed as a child: ‘Occasionally, when I was four or five years old, I would witness raids by excise officers on the illegal brewing operations. For some reason, I vividly remember one scene of a line of trucks coming up the hill towards the rickety huts which served as stills where the moonshine was brewed. The whole settlement was thrown into turmoil, like a hive of angry bees. I can still hear the cries of ‘aigo’ [alas!] echoing across the hillside. I shall never forget the sounds of anger and grief in the voices of those people whose meagre means of livelihood were about to be destroyed. In my childish mind, I formed the sense that we were somehow living in an outlaw world.’ Kang Sang Jung, ‘Memories of a Zainichi Korean Childhood,’ The Asia-Pacific Journal Japan Focus Vol.5.2 (February 2, 2007), 2.

    The Shimoyama, Mitaka, and Matsukawa incidents took place in quick succession to each other from July to August 1949. In the Shimoyama incident, the president of the National Railway Shimoyama Sadanori disappeared on his way to work and was later found dead on a railway track. In the Mitaka and Matsukawa incidents, suspected sabotage led to fatal train derailments. National Railway being a hotbed of militant labor, JCP terrorism was suspected. To this day, the truth behind the incidents remains unclear and the three incidents are known as the ‘three great National Railway mysteries.’

    For Eells’ evolving views on communism in Japanese education, see Ruriko Kumano, ‘Anticommunism and Academic Freedom: Walter C. Eells and the ‘Red Purge’ in Occupied Japan,’ History of Education Quarterly (November 2010): 513–537. Hans Martin Kramer has shown that the Red Purge in Japanese higher education was not simply the result of Eells’ orders. Hans Martin Kramer, ‘Just Who Reversed the Course? The Red Purge in Higher Education during the Occupation of Japan,’ Social Science Japan Journal (April 2005): 1–18. Nevertheless, for Zengakuren students eager to conduct their ‘anti -imperial struggle,’ Eells provided the perfect target. The common practice to attribute the Red Purge solely to occupation policy, as well as the term ‘Red Purge’ itself, seems to have originated with the nationalistic narrative of resistance developed during the course of these protests. The term does not appear in mainstream periodicals until the fall of 1950.
