China Lobby (English)

Japanese: チャイナ・ロビー(英語表記)China Lobby
China Lobby (English)
An American political group. It began by supporting Chiang Kai-shek during the Chinese Civil War, and after the revolution it supported the Kuomintang government in Taiwan and represented its interests (such as holding a seat in the United Nations) in the United States. It is not a membership-based organization. It is a group of politicians, business people, journalists, and missionaries, and famous members include Senator WF Norland and Ruth Norland of Time Inc. The heyday of lobbying was the late 1940s and 1950s, but today, after the normalization of diplomatic relations between the United States and China, it is practically a dead term.

Japanese:
アメリカの政治的グループ。中国の国共内戦時代の蔣介石支援にはじまり,革命後は台湾・国民党政府を支持し,アメリカ国内でその利益(たとえば国連議席保持)を代弁した。会員制の団体といったものではない。政・財界人,ジャーナリスト,宣教師らのグループで,W.F.ノーランド上院議員,タイム社のルース夫人などが有名。1940年代後半から50年代がロビー活動(ロビイング)の最盛期で,米中国交正常化後の今日ではほとんど死語にひとしい。
