Research Abstract |
Our collaborative research has consistently examined the cultural and political implications of the Monroe Doctrine (1823). History convinces us that President James Monroe's speech act conjured up and naturalized the Western and Eastern hemispheric imagination. This insight helps us comprehend not only the political unconscious of Victorian America but also the post-colonialist viewpoint of the 20th century, enabling us to reconsider the new global reality, that is, the "globality" more visible in the 21st century. This perspective induced the members of the research group to deliver a variety of papers at conferences in Japan and the US, publish quite a few articles and books, and hold a final symposium "The Monroe Doctrine Reconsidered" at Seikei University on March 29th, 2014. We also plan to co-edit a book of essays suggesting the possibility of planetary symbiosis in the new century still being menaced by terrorism and nuclear power.
