| 研究実績の概要 |
In 2021 the main research achievement for this project was a co-authored journal article published in an online, peer-reviewed open access journal. This journal article was about the sinking of the Ukishima-maru in Maizuru Bay in August 1945. Its relevance to this project was furthering understanding of the role of the Occupation Forces in deciding what constituted 'repatriation'.
Other research achievements related to the project included a jointly-edited book under contract to Routledge (forthcoming late-2022), 2 articles submitted to international peer-reviewed journals and two book chapters (one forthcoming and one under consideration).
The edited book is about Japanese end of empire migration during the 1950s and 1960s. My chapter in the book has relevance to this project because it provides the first English-language summary of Japanese historiography on repatriation.
The journal articles under consideration concern: 1) the different discourses about repatriation that emerged from 1945 to 1950 and 2) the provision of 'charity' to repatriates by local repatriate groups in Hokkaido. Both of these topics help to contextualise the role of private charities in repatriation. The two book chapters are adapted Japanese versions of the journal articles and will contribute to a wider dissemination of the project's findings.

3: やや遅れている
理由
Progress was slightly delayed because of being unable to attend international conferences in person because of concerns with Covid. This has hindered dissemination of findings and discussion with other researchers. However, some progress was made with writing up results of the research with several manuscripts now under consideration for publication in journals and edited books.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
With Covid restrictions lessening, in 2022 I have been accepted to attend one conference meeting in person and one conference meeting online (both in July). As international travel becomes easier I also intend to make research trips to Tokyo and to the United States to use archives that I have identified as having documents relating to the Head of the Repatriation Bureau, Saito Soichi.
|
| 次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
Owing to Covid I was unable to travel abroad and so could not use funds intended to access archives. In 2022 with the easing of travel restrictions I plan to visit the archives that I was unable to go to in 2020 and 2021.
