This study is motivated by the recognition that the study of World War II has not revealed the full picture of the war, mainly because it has been analyzed from the perspective of the American and European powers. However, as the Atlantic Charter suggests, World War II was not only an anti-fascist war against the Axis powers of Germany, Italy, and Japan, but also an anti-imperialist war. World War II as anti-imperialism was not a war between the Axis and Allied powers, but between imperialism and the colonized peoples within the Axis and Allied powers. However, because the colonized peoples were not at the center of the war, the anti-imperialist nature of World War II has been overlooked. However, the diplomatic clashes between China and Britain during the Pacific War exemplify the anti-imperialist nature of World War II. This study aims to analyze the anti-imperialist nature of World War II by focusing on the diplomatic clashes between China and Britain in the first half of the 1940s. This study does not simply reveal the conflict between Britain and China or another characterization of World War II, but also the historical role and meanings of nationalism in the formation of the post-World War II world order.
