Resumo:Two questions are discussed in this research. The first is: how to understand the phenomenon that decolonization is a rarely mentioned word in the context of repatriation, while colonialism is a familiar issue to Chinese people? The second: how to understand Chinese people's attitude towards repatriating cultural objects removed from China during the colonial era? This research aimed to provide an in-depth view of Chinese people's understanding of Chinese colonial history, international repatriation, and decolonization. The complicated relationship between people's understanding of colonialism and decolonization in China and the correlation between the attitude towards repatriation and the understanding of colonialism are revealed in this research.
