The Establishment of Singanhoe and the Unification theory for one National party

Singanhoe is the anti-imperialistic national cooperative front established by leftwing nationalists(non-negotiationist nationalists) and socialists, which was the nation’s largest one under the rule of Japanese imperialism. As the archetype of the national cooperative front, Singanhoe have interested researchers who seek the course and suggestion of the national unification. The most plain historical fact that Singanhoe began as the organization by left wing nationalists, however, have not been recognized properly in that the movement of Singanhoe have been only understood in respect of cooperative front, which misunderstanding still prevails. In this research, I distinguished clearly between the purpose of leadership promoting and establishing Singanhoe and the stage of Singanhoe developing into the national cooperative front. Left wing nationalists promoted and established Singanhoe as the left wing-national(ism) front for the purpose of concentrating left wing nationalists against the autonomy movement. Socialists advocated the theory of unified one national party as the strategy for a bourgeois-democratic revolution, and attempted developing Singanhoe into unified one national party by joining the left wing-national front. With this, Singanhoe had characters of the national cooperative front. The theory of left wing-national front by left-wing nationalists and the theory of unified one national party by socialists were rooted in the background of Singanhoe’s establishment and the development of Singanhoe into national cooperative front respectively. This study expounded the ideology of left-wing nationalists who established Singanhoe under the theory of left wing front, and investigated the logic of Singanhoe’s development into the national cooperative front by socialists under the theory of unified one national party.
