Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this project I intended to demonstrate the historiography of Japanese Diplomacy in 1930's, focusing on the idea of "The Asiatic Cold War" strategy. I invented the term to represent the attitude and strategy of Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs of those days ; It tried to achieve the national goal of becoming an Asian leader with the full recognition from the Western countries as the guardian of the communist invasion to Asia. Using the idea as a main angle I published five magazine articles, gave three presentations at the meeting of academic societies and wrote nine chapters to the books on various themes from Anglo-Japanese relations to The assembly of the Greater Asiatic Nations in 1943 including one lecture at the international symposium in Taiwan and one article which was translated into English.
