| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
During the three years of this research, I completed three task: (1) interviews, in Kona, Oregon, Seattle, and the Los Angeles area. After I submitted the application for the “Kiban-C” in April 2015, I continued examining the life experiences of the Japanese Nisei in Kona, Hawaii, based on interviews. This research suggested that the relationship between Japanese national identity and Japanese national symbols utilized by the Japanese Shrines, such as Jinja and Inari were far more profound than assumed by the existing literature. (2) These findings were utilized in my monograph, the book is titled, Rural Isolation and Dual Cultural Existence: The Japanese American Kona Coffee Community. (3) In addition Abe, D., & Imamura, M. (2018) Forthcoming. The Destruction of a Religion: Japanese Shintoism after the Attack on Pearl Harbor, Has been submitted. Since the commencement of this project, the research has advance to the next level. On the whole, the project was extremely successful.
