Abstract
The recent upsurge of anti-Japanese sentiment in China should not be reduced to elite instrumentality, the Chinese Communist Party merely fomenting nationalism to legitimize its rule.

These popular sentiments, furthermore, are increasingly constraining China's elite as they seek to make China's Japan policy.
