| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
From October 2018 until now I have published two articles in highly ranked, peer-reviewed international journals based on the funding I have received. 1) Reto Hofmann, “What’s Left of the Right: Nabeyama Sadachika and Anti-Communism in Transwar Japan, 1930-1960.” Journal of Asian Studies (forthcoming, May 2020). 2) Reto Hofmann, “The Conservative Imaginary: Moral Re-Armament and the Transwar Politics of the Japanese Right.” Japan Forum, 31, 4, 2019. I have also attended 9 conferences in Japan, the United States, and Australia, in which I have presented my work in progress. Waseda University has given me a research award (Waseda University Reseach Award, High-Impact Publicagtions) in December 2018.

| Current Status of Research Progress |
Current Status of Research Progress
1: Research has progressed more than it was originally planned.
Reason
I was able to publish my research in the Journal of Asian Studies. This is the most highly respected international journal in Asian history.
As a result, I have received several requests to collaborate with scholars in Japan and overseas.
|
| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
In the next year, I will use the remaining funding to complete the research in the archives of Yabe Teiji held at the Graduate Institute for Policy Research. This will enable me to make progress in two chapters of the book that I am currently writing.
|
| Causes of Carryover |
I require this amount to conduct research in the archives at Graduate Institute for Policy Studies to research the papers of Yabe Teiji. This is crucial to complete two chapters of the book that I am currently writing.
