| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The Iwo Jima(Volcano) islands, part of Japanese territory, are located in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. These islands were uninhabited until 19th century. In the 1890s, some people started to migrate to these islands from the Japanese mainland. During the 1910s and 1920s, sugarcane cultivation and manufacturing became a main industry of the Iwo Jima islands and the population of these Islands increased. In the 1930s through to 1944, coca cultivation and manufacturing replaced the sugar industry as the islands' main industry. In 1944 during WWII, the settlers of the Iwo Jima islands were forced to evacuate from their islands to Japan. Despite the end of war, they have not been allowed to return to their homeland until now because of the previous occupations by the US Navy and the Japanese Self-Defence Forces. In this project, I examined the migrant and refugee (diaspora) history of the Iwo Jima islanders under the total war and the cold war regimes.
