Fatherland Liberation Association

Japanese: 祖国光復会 - そこくこうふくかい

An anti-Japanese coalition of Koreans in Manchuria, organized on May 5, 1936 by the "Special Committee for East Manchuria" of the Communist Party of China as an affiliated organization of the "Anti-Japanese United Movement" within its jurisdiction. After the Manchurian Incident, it functioned as a united front for nationalists and communists who remained in Manchuria, and Kim Il-sung also participated. In its ten major principles, the association stipulates the overthrow of Japanese imperialism and the establishment of a Korean People's Government through the realization of a broad anti-Japanese national united front. After its establishment, the Gwangbok Association published its journals, "March January Monthly" and "Hudamin," and developed a powerful patriotic anti-Japanese movement not only in major cities in the country but also in Manchuria. After the liberation of Korea in 1945, the association's principles were adopted by the political platform of the Communist Party of Korea (later the Workers' Party of Korea).

1936年5月5日中国共産党の「東満特委」によってその管轄地区内に「抗日連運」の外郭団体として組織された在満朝鮮人の抗日連合体。満州事変後なお「満州」に在留した民族主義者と共産主義者の統一戦線として機能し，キム・イルソン (金日成)もこれに参加した。同会はその十大綱領のなかで，広く抗日民族統一戦線の実現による日本帝国主義の打倒と朝鮮人民政府の樹立などを規定している。光復会はその成立後，機関誌『三・一月刊』『火田民』などを出し，国内の主要都市はもとより，満州において強力な愛国抗日運動を展開した。同会の綱領は，45年の朝鮮解放後，朝鮮共産党 (のちの朝鮮労働党) の政治綱領に引継がれた。
