Research Abstract |
In this study, we focused on the Asian diaspora who had been alienated from the national integration in the Japanese colonial empire in the 1930s. In most preceding studies, a large number of historical facts have been hidden under the name such as "pro-Japanese" and "counter-revolutionary". And this study provides a new approach. Although the Asian diaspora were torn from their existing communities and societies, and it caused the phenomenon of "conversion", but we also should emphasize that it was the common experiences of the Asian diaspora also the Japanese. From this angle, we found out various issues of the modern colonialism in East Asia. The result of our study clearly shows that we gained a new perspective to overcome the ethnocentric nationalism in today's East Asia.
