Outline of Final Research Achievements

I studied the Japanese Diplomacy from the establishment of the Meiji New Government to the Sinno-Japanese and the Russo-Japanese War, from the perspective that the Asian Old Order had clashed with the European Modern Order. My study corresponds to the result of the Japanese Early Modern Study and the Chinese Modern Study. When I studied the above theme, I reprinted the many historical materials of the contemporary diplomats or statesmen, for example, MUTSU Munemitsu and NISHI Tokujiro.
