Outline of Final Research Achievements

In the three years of this project, many important oral information were collected to estimate the historical position of Japanese anarchist movement after 1945 in the context of the global anarchism history; along with these oral information, the valuable materials, such as journals, pamphlets and manuscripts, were also collected. Analysing these information and materials, various facts were revealed about the relationship between the global anarchism network formed throughout the 20th century and Japanes anarchist movement after WWII. However, since the all oral information are private, there must be a very careful selection of information to construct the databese. On the means and format of publication, we need further study and consideration.
