This thesis compares the discourses on globalization as well as personal experiences of three authors, and finds that their common vehicle is China. To answer what role China plays in Japan¡¦s route to globalization, how China affects the form and transformation of the Japanese identity, and what relations the identity strategies have to do with globalization, this thesis collects previously rarely noted approaches present in the narratives of the three authors. However different these authors are in term of their areas of expertise or residential locations in the world, China serves as a major source of intellectual creativity. China means different things to them although they all find China an essential component of Japan¡¦s self-representation. In Japan¡¦s various routes toward globalization, the China conception has always been a short cut.
