The peace function of the Ministry of Education

教育史研究表明，明治维新后我国的教育体系建设旨在培养大日本帝国宪法下的“臣民”。从20世纪30年代后半期开始，“主题”的性质发生了变化。当个人主义、自由主义和民主主义被谴责为来自西方国家的舶来品时，“国台町”和日本人的思想遍布所有领土。因此，“臣民”被迫以“皇族”的身份进行“学习训练”。在韩国、台湾、“满洲国”、中国等地，他们应该得到培养。以“教研局”为出发点的“教研局革新教研局”与国家精神文化实验室发生了冲突。他们以发展“亚洲崛起教育”为出路，但仅限于在中国北方占领区编写教科书等。然而，当“训练”成为实现全面战争秩序的首要目标时，教育教学局的意义就增加了。特别是在对美英展开敌对行动后，意在加强对学生思想的引导和“民族思想的引导”，推进完成“皇族”的培养教育。与此同时，国家精神文化实验室虽然在30年代后半期试图通过“有思想的国防”来扩张，但在40年代与教研局的摩擦中变得软弱无力。

It has been clarified by the studies on history of education that our nation had aimed for upbringing " the subjects" under Great Japanese Imperial Constitution by the construction of the education system after Meiji Restoration. The quality of "the subjects" changed from the latter half of 1930's. While the individualism, the liberalism and the democracy were denounced as imports from Western countries, "Kokutaimeicho" and Japanese mind pervaded all territories. As a result, "the subjects" were driven to "study training" as "imperial nation". Furthermore, they should be brought up in Korea, Taiwan, "Manchurian country", China, etc.Teaching Study Bureau, which started as a "central organization to renovate teaching study", slumped and conflicted with the National Spiritual Culture Laboratory. They aimed to develop "rising Asia education" to find a way out, but it was restricted to compiling textbook at the occupied territory in the northern part of China, and so on.However, when "training" became the primary aim to accomplish total war order, the significance of the Education Teaching Bureau increased. Especially after opening the hostilities toward the United States of America and England, they intended to enforce the guidance of the students' thoughts and "the guidance of the national thoughts", pushed forward to complete the training education of "imperial nation".Meanwhile, though the National Spiritual Culture Laboratory tried to expand by "national defense with thoughts" in the latter half of the '30 s, they became weak in the friction with the Teaching Study Bureau in the '40 s.
