After "cold war", some negative factors emerged from the mainstream of friendly co-operation in Sino-Japan relations, and these factors obstacled the development of bilateral relations, which fell into the valley from 1995 to 1996.The writer thinks that all of the obstacles resulted from Japan. On this basis and under the guidance of Marxism stand, viewpoint and approach, the writer initially reveals the obstacles of Sino-Japan relations, then analyses them from the angle of internal cause and external cause.Part I states the obstacles during the development of Sino-Japan relations. They are historical problems, Diaoyu Island Issue, Taiwan Issue, Japan-US alliance and the politicalization of economic assistance to China. Historical problems are important factors affecting Sino-Japan relations. Japan Cultural Department has authorized and confirmed the history textbook which distorts and prettifies its invasion truth. The governmental officials formally call on the warlord temple and the activities in political circle and academia reverse its invasion fact . All the above factors have hurt extremely Chinese emotion. On the issue of Taiwan and Diaoyu Island , Japan government disobeyed the principle and bilateral entente in Sino-Japan Joint Declaration and Sino-Japan Treaty on peace and friendship, connived the right-wing members to land on the Diaoyu Island to make disturbance, promoted Japan-Taiwan relations to obstruct China' s unification and contained China, in the meanwhile, affected China's modernization process in advantage of official development assistance.Part II analyses the emergence and its inherent origin of the obstacle in Sino-Japan relations.Japanese nation is a crisis-consciousvery much, and is very sensitive to the changes of outer circumstance, with a strong and sensitive response.
