A Comparative socio-historical study on family education and relationship of mother and children during the 1920's

我对20世纪20年代的家庭教育和母子关系进行了比较社会历史研究。在两次世界大战之间，民族国家变得强大，他们需要他们的人民具有强烈的民族认同。现代家庭必须培养有用的人才来帮助他们的民族国家，母亲节是本研究的关键词之一。母亲节起源于世纪初的德国和美国。我着重讨论了这两个国家母亲节历史的政治背景。母亲节是如何把民族国家的人民团结在一起的？母亲节和民族主义之间有什么样的关系？通过比较两国母亲节的历史，我想弄清楚现代世界的新创造是如何被民族国家视为传统和神圣的。五篇是期刊文章，三篇是书中文章，两篇讨论母亲节的历史，一篇讨论父亲节。我试图通过比较母亲节和父亲节来澄清母亲节在政治背景中的作用。另外两篇文章探讨了德国的家庭和母亲形象。另外，我还写了三篇关于日本近代史上家庭教育和亲子关系的话语分析。我认为当代问题对于历史研究是重要的

I have undertaken a comparative socio-historical study on family education and the relationship between mothers and children during the 1920's. When the nation-states became stronger between the two world wars, they need their people to have the strong national identity. The modern Family had to bring up useful people to help their nation-state.One of the key-words is Mother's Day in this study. Mother's day was created in the early 20th Century in Germany and the U.S. I have focused on the political context of the history of Mother's day in both countries. How did Mother's day bring the people of the nation-states together? What kind of relationship was there between Mother's day and nationalism? By comparing the two countries' histories of Mother's day, I would like to make clear how the new creation of the modern world has been made to be seen traditional and holy by nation state.I have written eight articles. Five are journal articles, three are in books.The two articles discuss the history of Mother's day, and one discusses father's day. I attempt to clarify the role of Mother's day in political context by comparing Mother's day and Father's day. And the other two articles discuss the family and mother images in Germany. They explain why Germany needed Mother's day.In addition, I wrote three discourses analysis on family education and relationship between parents and children in Japanese recent history. I think the contemporary issues are important for the historical studies
