Research Abstract	The purpose of this study was to describe Tao Jingsun's involvement of the Eastern Cultural Policy based on historical documents. The network of Chinese returnees and their career in China were used to trace down Tao' s activities. His work dated from the time when he was a special scholarship student selected by Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Japan to the time when he worked at the Shanghai Science Institute. In addition, It came clear that Tao was sent to Taiwan to requisition Taiwan Imperial University after World War II. This paper extends the existing literature by giving a new perspective to Tao Jingsun`s study.
