Abstract
The Weixian Concentration Camp was the largest camp established by the Japanese army to detain foreign nationals of Allied countries during World War II, and it carries significant political, cultural, and historical significance. By studying the reasons, characteristics, and lenient detention policies implemented in this camp, we can gain insights into the attitudes of the Japanese army and government towards allied expatriates in China at that time. This paper argues that the Japanese army generally adhered to international conventions in the detention of allied expatriates in China, reflecting their ‘friendly’ attitude towards these allied expatriates in China and their admiration for Western civilization.
