Research Abstract |
In prewar Japan, the Army and the Navy had their own research and development agencies such as the Technical Institute of the Navy and the Scientific Research Institute of the Army, targeting on not only inventing new weapons but executing the basic research. During the WWII, the objectives of the mobilization of science and technology was rapidly expanded, giving rise to the joint research activities over military, public, private, and academic sectors. Engineers and scientists who embarked on war-related R & D activities should transfer to the civilian and public sectors except the military after the defeat of the Japanese empire, and some of them found their new tasks to lead the research activities. Whether the post of engineers were designated as military or civilian officials decisively controlled the trajectory of the engineers in postwar period.
