| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
This research continues to go very well despite the obvious challenges posed by the pandemic. The Principal Investigator is nearing completion of a second solo-authored and peer-reviewed monograph on this topic. This book will be published with a major international press sometime in the next fiscal year of 2023.
Most significantly for this year the Principal Investigator was Guest Editor for a special edition of the Journal of World History on the global history of travel during the late nineteenth century. The Journal of World History is one of the most prestigious journals in the field. Besides being the Guest Editor of the special edition, the Principal Investigator also published the introduction article in this special edition.
The Principal Investigator has also continued to be heavily involved in researching about this topic, including visits to the Nichibunken International Research Center for Japanese Studies. He continues to find new opportunities to build on what he has been able to accomplish since beginning this grant in 2018. The publication of the second monograph will be a major milestone for the researcher. This grant has proven to be very beneficial in advancing the Principal Investigator's overall research agenda.
