| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims to reevaluate the historical significance of the so-called “women’s emancipation policy” during the U.S. occupation of Japan after the World War II, focusing on the reproductive control. By viewing the occupation as a stage where the American and Japanese ideologies of gender and family met and sometimes clashed, this study shows that the eugenic ideology and the laws and legal systems which support it were established and strengthened during the occupation under the influence of American eugenics movement which eliminate "unfit" individuals from the family image.
