理由
The research and expenditure level corresponds to the initial plan for FY2016.
For reasons of research preparation, the archival research was carried out in August/September 2016 (instead of July). Moreover, a follow-up research was carried out at the Maritime Museum and at the National Archives, London, in March 2017. This research has sifted additional materials and verified documents related to those collected during the archival research in August.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
Mid-August - mid-September 2017: research at the following locations and archives:
France: Archives Nationales d’Outre-Mer (ANOM), Aix-en-Provence; Marseilles (municipal archives); Frenchlines Archive (Messageries Maritimes), Le Havre; Germany: Bundesarchiv Berlin-Lichterfelde, Staatsarchiv Bremen, Staatsarchiv Hamburg; Switzerland: International Labor Office, Geneva (ILO).
Changes compared to the original planning: the archives at Marseille and Le Havre have been added. The period of research has been adjusted to suit research needs. Moreover, the research at ANOM will be shortened to accommodate the research at Le Havre and Marseille.
