| Research Abstract |
The aim of this research was to understand the militaries of East and South-East Asia in their social and cultural contexts from the viewpoint of historical anthropology. An important accomplishment of this research is the development of the justifiable analysis of Asian militaries and their social and cultural contexts through fieldwork and the use of primary sources. The results are evident from various publications and reports by the project members.
Our project that discusses the relationship between the military and its local communities has caught the attention of both Japanese and overseas researchers. Also, this project has offered a stimulating opportunity for young researchers interested in similar themes.
An international symposium was held in Misawa, Japan to further communications with researchers outside the country. It should be emphasized that in terms of social contribution, two public lectures at the symposium are especially significant.
