第一次世界大戦後の欧州国境問題と国際連盟少数民族問題の解決における日本の貢献

截至2014年年初，我能够找到大量的原始资料，证明日本在1921年后参与了南斯拉夫王国和匈牙利之间的领土划界。我还能够发现记录日本在其他中欧和东欧国家边境定居点活动的资料来源。这对我们更好地理解1919年巴黎和会后日本在战后和解中的作用起到了重要作用。从2014年底开始，我积极参加各种会议和研讨会，并在会上发表研究成果。2014年12月，我参加了第二届“斯洛文尼亚-日本联合研究：从日本和斯洛文尼亚的历史和教科书看20世纪世纪”研讨会（东京，2014年12月18 - 19日），并首次公开了研究结果。2015年2月22日，我应邀参加了京都大学举办的“日本在一战中的作用”研讨会。今年6月我将参加在同一所大学举行的第二次会议，随后将在2016年初出版一本关于日本在第一次世界大战中的作用的最新研究的多卷专著。目前的研究将是专题论文的一部分，涵盖日本与非亚洲国家在大战期间的关系。

As of the beginning of 2014 I was able to uncover a comprehensive number of primary sources that document Japan’s participation in the territorial delineation between the Yugoslav kingdom and Hungary after 1921. I was also able to uncover sources that document Japan’s activities in border settlements among other Central European and East European nations. This has proved to be a significant contribution to our better understanding of Japan's role in the postwar settlements after the Paris peace conference in 1919.Since the end of 2014 I have been actively participating in conferences and workshops where I am presenting the research findings. In December 2014 I attended the second workshop of the Slovenia-Japan Joint Research: The 20th Century through Historiographies and Textbooks in Japan and Slovenia (Tokyo, December 18 – 19, 2014) where I presented publicly the results for the first time.In February 22, 2015 I was invited to attend a conference on Japan’s role in World War I organized by the Kyoto University. I will be attending the second conference at the same university this June, which will be followed by publishing a multivolume monograph on the latest research on Japan's role in World War I by the beginning of 2016. The present study will be part of the monograph, covering Japan's relations with non-Asian countries during the Great War.
