| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
During the 27 year U.S. rule of Okinawa from 1945 to 1972, the U.S. military government used audiovisual media as part of its educational and public relations activities. The United States’ aim was to govern Okinawa smoothly by garnering the local residents’ understanding for their occupation policies through these activities. By viewing and analyzing the USCAR-produced films preserved in the National Archives and Records Administration in the US and Okinawa Prefectural Archives and doing research on the audio-visual section of the Public Affairs Department of USCAR, I attempted to elucidate the actuality of these films and the roles of public diplomacy through visual media in pursuing occupation policies.
