Post-Totalwar Society and Post-Colonial Culture

1998年，我们致力于我们的研究计划的结果，“战时动员及其对社会政治结构变化的影响”。通过建立国内外学术网络，我们将全面战争和后殖民研究的主题联系起来。此外，为了方便英语学者了解我们的研究成果，我们还将研究成果整理成一本书，名为《全面战争与现代化》（Total War and“Modernization”，康奈尔大学出版社）。例如，我们组织了两次研讨会。第一个是在东京外国语大学举行的“反殖民主义的愿望和全球资本市场”国际研讨会（19日）。Sep.），第二次是在冲绳举行的题为“殖民主义和种族主义问题化的立场/地点”的讲习班（12月）。此外，为筹备这两个主要研讨会，日本的研究人员于今年5月和10月在欧洲和美国召开了几次研究会议。通过这些国际网络，我们在2000年为我们最大的研讨会“美国阴影下的战后东亚：对东亚后殖民性的思考”奠定了基础。为期两天的研讨会（26/27）。1月）不仅关注了战后东亚被遗忘已久的问题，而且对当前有关这一问题的理论讨论进行了追问。本次研讨会的总结记录将于2001年6月由Seido出版社出版，作为我们为期三年的项目的最终成果。

In 1998, we worked on the results of our research program, 'The War-Time Mobilization and Its Influence on the Change of Socio-Political Structures'. Building the academic networks both within and outside the country, we connected the topic of the Total War and that of postcolonial studies. Moreover, we summarized our research in one book, Total War and "Modernization" (Cornell University Press) to facilitate access to our research to English language scholars.In 1999, we continued our research. For example, we organized two workshops. The first was the international workshop of 'the Desire of Anti-Colonialism and Global Capital Market' held at Tokyo University of Foreign Studies (on 19. Sep.), and the second was the workshop entitled 'the Position/Site from which Colonialism and Racism are Problematized' in Okinawa (in Dec.). Moreover, in May and Oct. of this year, Japanese members of the project held several research conferences in Europe and the United States in preparation for these two main workshops.Thanks to these international networks, in 2000, we were able to lay the ground work for our largest workshop entitled 'Post-War East Asia under the Shadow of the United States : A Consideration of Postcoloniality of East Asia'. This 2 day workshop long (26/27. Jan.) not only focused on the problems which were long forgotten in East Asia after the War, but also interrogated current theoretical discussions on this matter. The summarized record of this workshop will be soon published by Seido Publishing House in Jun. 2001, as the final result of our three-year-project.
