This study analyzed the problem of the disposition of Japanese war dead overseas from the end of WWII to the 1960s, focusing on diplomatic relation with United States, United Kingdom and Australia. As a result of this study, it especially clarified 3 points below. First, the international rules on the disposition of war dead like the Geneva Convention affected deeply the policy-making process of each country. Second, public opinion by the war bereaved and negotiation with U.S. were crucial factors for Japanese government to decide policy for war dead. Third, Chidorigafuchi National Cemetery, established in 1959, was not to become a center of the National Institute for Commemoration of WWII because of division of internal opinions. This study plans to publish a book which shows various aspects on this issue including these points.
