Outline of Final Research Achievements

In the 18th century, European countries, including the Russian Empire, expanded into the Black Sea region, while the Ottoman Empire retreated from power. Research was conducted into the social changes that occurred in the Black Sea region as a result of these changes in power relations between the great powers, focusing on the issues surrounding the movement of people seen during the same period. Furthermore, the second half of the 18th century was the period of the Russian Empire's expansion into Ukraine and Crimea, when international relations over the modern Black Sea began to take shape. Based on the results of this research, an edited volume was published that takes a historical perspective on the current conflict in Ukraine.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

黒海地域は東洋史と西洋史の狭間にあり、黒海史研究は比較的研究の遅れた分野であるため、本研究には未知の領域を埋める学術的意義があった。同時に、2022年にロシア・ウクライナ戦争が勃発して、日本ではあまりなじみのない黒海地域への注目が集まったが、本研究が対象とする18世紀後半は、ロシア・トルコ・西欧諸国が黒海地域をめぐってせめぎ合うという、現代黒海国際関係の形成期と考えられ、本研究成果は、現代の問題を考察する上で重要な位置を占めている。それ故、本研究成果を踏まえたウクライナ・黒海問題に関する講演や書籍の刊行を行ったことには、社会的意義があったと考えられる。
