| Research Abstract |
In order to shed light on the characteristics of Japanese colonial rule in Korea and Taiwan from a historical point of view, this research proceeded by approaching both colonies comprehensively and by comparing them, keeping in mind their differences. Areas covered ranged the spectrum, and included politics, economics, the police and military, education, culture, etc. For example, by examining the characteristics of the Taiwanese household survey register and the Korean peoples' register, it became clear how the colonial census registration system was established. We also considered the important position occupied by Korea and Taiwan in the wider "Japanese Empire," which became particularly clear in the statistical examination of the production and circulation of machines within the Empire.
In recent years, historical materials on Japanese colonial rule have increasingly been made public. By using these materials in addition to those available in Japan, we were able to increase the level of our empirical research. For example, we were able to illuminate the nature of the Taiwan Governor-General's education policy based on documents relating to the establishment of private schools in Taiwan (housed at the Taiwanese National Archives).
Through these activities, we were able to deepen international academic exchanges and discussions about the history of Japanese colonial rule.
