| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study explores the idea that in East Asia, at a time when a plethora of discourses on “revolution” and “the Vietnam War” were circulating, the “Japanese language” functioned to support discourses of resistance against military dictatorships in former colonies and formerly occupied areas. It is clear that Japan’s normalization of relations with the countries of East Asia meant economic invasion. However, if we simply view this through the lens of the Cold War in Asia, we may lose sight of the complex role that the Japanese language played with regard to the military violence that arose in countries like Vietnam, China, and Korea and the discourses of resistance to that violence. By articulating the role of “Japanese language” (culture, literature) with regard to “East Asia” during this period, this study has created a foundation for the construction of new ideological maps.
