| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In "Postwar Okinawa's Imperial Household Report-Focusing on Before the Appearance of the" Anti-Return "Theory-", by analyzing the imperial family report of Okinawan newspapers under US military occupation those emphasizing the imperial family who cares about Okinawans, I argued that the intention to draw the imperial family as a symbol of Japan and Okinawa's ties can be seen. In "Critique of the Emperor System in Postwar Okinawa Newspapers-Background to the Appearance of the" Anti-Return "Theory", even before Akira Arakawa's "Anti-Return" Theory, I argued the sprouting of discomfort that Okinawans have toward Japan was reported in the newspaper. In the final year, I conducted a survey of historical materials and discovered historical materials that reinforce the content of the above paper. I reported it under the title "Hinomaru and Kimi-ga-yo in the Okinawan reversion movement; Using materials related to the history of education after the war in Okinawa and the reversion movement"

戦後の沖縄県民は一貫して反天皇制の風潮が強いという印象が広がっているが、それは事実に反することを論証できた。米軍統治下の沖縄紙は沖縄を気にかける皇室の姿を報道することで、皇室を沖縄と日本の紐帯として描いており、皇室の冠婚葬祭に参加することを復帰運動の一部に位置づけていたのである。しかし、同時に建国記念日や君が代に対する消極的姿勢も現れており、沖縄県民が日本に対して抱いていた違和感の萌芽も確認できる。復帰運動が左傾化するにつれて、皇室は日米安全保障条約すなわち沖縄基地化政策の象徴に置き換えられ、沖縄紙は反皇室報道に転じていくが、その論拠となる史料を現地調査で発見できたので、その発表に努める。
