| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
With the assistance of this JSPS grant, this project sheds light on the importance of examining transpacific history through various connections between the Southern and Northern hemispheres. By doing so, it also presents a different notion of transpacific history, beyond the familiar notion of it being a matter of Northern Hemisphere-centric connections between the United States and Asian countries. This project thereby allows us to imagine the transpacific space as a more dynamic and multi-faceted world of human mobilities and connections

1. 環太平洋の歴史を検討する際に、半球横断的な視点が必要であることを明らかにした。
2. グローバル史は歴史をグローバルな枠組みで検討する傾向がある。しかし、社会史から検討した場合、ローカル、ナショナル、リージョナル、グローバルのそれぞれのレベルがどう交錯し歴史を作るのかというクロス・レベル分析を行う必要性を、国際移動・移民の実証的研究から明らかにした。
