Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this project, I conducted intensive archival research at the UNESCO Archives in Paris in 2014 as well as at such archives in Japan as the Sendai UNESCO Association, Hiroshima University Library and Kyoto University Library in 2015.
Based on this, I successfully contributed an article to a collection of papers which was published in commemoration of the 70th anniversary of UNESCO. As the first work written in English that examined the history of relations between UNESCO and Japan up to its official admission in 1951, this article can be seen as the last best result of this project. There is also little doubt that this research project has been widely recognized in the international research network on the history of UNESCO.
