Entente (English spelling)

Japanese: 協商 - きょうしょう(英語表記)entente
Entente (English spelling)
A diplomatic term derived from the French entente cordiale, meaning "close concord." H. Nicolson defines it as "a similarity of views and interests between certain nations, and an agreement of policy on certain issues, somewhere between an 'alliance' and a 'friendship,'" but it is generally used to describe a loose cooperative relationship between nations that is not based directly on a treaty, agreement, or arrangement. Sometimes it is used to refer to a cooperative relationship based on a treaty, but even in that case, it differs from an alliance in that the conditions for the obligation to assist are not clearly stated. Historically, it has referred to various cooperative relationships between Great Britain and France, but it is most often used to refer to the Anglo-French Entente.

Japanese:
フランス語の「親しい協和」 entente cordialeという言葉から生じた外交用語。 H.ニコルソンはこれを「一定の国家間における見解と利害の類似および一定の問題に関する政策の一致を意味し,『同盟』と『友好関係』の中間に位置する」と定義づけているが,一般には条約,協定,取決めなどに直接基づかない国家間のゆるい協力提携関係を表わすものとして用いられる。ときには条約に基づく協力提携関係をさして用いることもあるが,その場合でも,援助義務発生条件を明文化しないのが同盟と異なる点である。歴史的にはイギリスとフランスの間の種々の協力関係をさすが,特に英仏協商をさす場合が多い。
