| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study, entitled "The rise and decline of Japanese spiritual theory in the Showa period of prewr and wartime", is on the activation of Japanese spritual theory (Nippon-Seishin-ron ) in the 1930s speech field and the "Japanese spiritual series" ( Nippon-Seishin-sosho ) and "Educational-Academic series" ( Kyogaku-sosho ) by the Ministry of Education (Monbusho Shiso-kyoku,Kyogaku-kyoku). We will analyze the academic background and discourse of the following publications. The concept of "Japanese spirit" (Nippon-Seishin ) is based on the Imperial Manuscript on Education ( Kyoiku-Chokugo ) , inherits the concept of "National morality" ( Kokumin-Dotoku ), and conected to the concept of "Imperial road" (Kokoku-no-Michi )in the 1941 National School Ordinance (Kokumin-Gakko-Rei ) . It became clear that the Japanese spirit had academic restrictions such as criticism of classical literature and world history studies, and restrictions on its function as a concept of national integration.

本研究は、1930-40年代の日本精神論の様態と、教育勅語を巡る諸概念の継承関係を明らかにするものであるが、それは今日の伝統文化教育や、近代日本の教育の主導的概念をどう理解するかという現代的・社会的意義を有するものである。本研究の学術的成果として『共通教化と教育勅語』（東京大学出版会2019年）、教養書として『くわしすぎる教育勅語』（太郎次郎社エディタス2019年）、さらに社会的問題提起としての強調として教育史学会編『教育勅語の何が問題か』（岩波ブックレット2017年）、岩波書店編集部『徹底検証教育勅語と日本社会』（岩波書店2017年）が刊行された。
