| Research Abstract |
Before World War II,marching along with the national policy, Japanese educators advanced to Asia and made a serious mistake of forcing people to "assimilate to Japan", and as a result, supported colonial control and/or military occupation. Recently, enhancing mutual understanding with Asian countries through educational and cultural exchange programs has been encouraged. At this stage, we consider that it is necessary to elucidate how Japanese educators were involved in Asia, and to investigate the mentality which led them to despise Asia. We believe the result of our study may contribute to reflect on our past activities.
Based on the above-mentioned concern, we intended to investigate the issue, particularly in China, Korea and Taiwan, from three viewpoints : (1) the thoughts on Asian education observed in educational journals in modern Japan, (2) Japanese educators' thoughts on Asian education and their practice, and (3) reaction of educators in China, Korea and Taiwan.
Major activiti
… More
es of this two-year-project were as follows :
(1) We held a general meeting every year to discuss the research methodology and to report progress, and thus we developed a common understanding of the issue.
(2) Prior to the general meeting, we held section meetings for editorial work to compile documents. We selected and analyzed articles on Asian education included in educational journals of the Meiji Period. The results were made public in July 1995 as The Thoughts on the Asian Education in Modern Japan : Articles on China, Korea and Taiwan, Included in Educational Journals in the Later Meiji Period (Index).
(3) Members of this research group made presentations at annual conferences of academic societies. A few of us took a leading role in having a colloquium "The Thoughts on Asia Observed in Educational History" at the 1995 annual conference of the Japan Educational History Society. We proposed the issue of formation of the contemptuous view on Asia among Japanese educators.
(4) Our final report, The Thoughts on Asia in Modern Japan : Their Formation and Development consists of 16 articles. Less
