  • Mapping the Interior Frontier of Japanese Settlers in Colonial Korea
    The Journal of Asian Studies Vol. 70, No. 3 (August) 2011: 706–729. © The Association for Asian Studies, Inc., 2011 doi:10.1017/S0021911811000878 A Sentimental Journey: Mapping the Interior Frontier of Japanese Settlers in Colonial Korea JUN UCHIDA This article explores the role of affect and sentiment in shaping cross-cultural encounters in late colonial Korea, as seen and experienced through the eyes of Japanese men and women who grew up in Seoul. By interweaving the oral and written testimonies of former settlers who came of age on the peninsula between the late 1920s and the end of colonial rule in 1945, the paper attempts to reconstruct their emotional journey into adulthood as young offspring of empire: specifically, how they apprehended colonialism, what they felt when encountering different segments of the Korean population, and in what ways their understanding of the world and themselves changed as a result of these interactions. Focusing on the intimate and everyday zones of contact in family and school life, this study more broadly offers a way to understand colonialism without reducing complex local interactions to abstract mechanisms of capital and bureaucratic rule. N WHAT WAYS CAN we talk about colonialism without reducing complex local Ihuman interactions to relations of power, dominance, and hegemony? In pro- posing emotion (see Reddy 2001; Haiyan Lee 2007) or “sensibility” (Wickberg 2007) as a lens through which to investigate the past, a number of studies have implicitly posed a new challenge for scholars of empire. Paying attention to senti- ment and sensibility, they suggest, gets us beyond an analytical grid of race, gender, and class that has dominated cultural history—where colonial studies have reigned and thrived—and allows us to probe more subtle and sensory layers of experience (Wickberg 2007, 673–74).

In this report, we have put together a record of activities from the past two years. We applied for SGH for the following reasons. First, we aim to equip Urawa High School students to become global leaders. Students should always try to overcome the difficulties they face. With this in mind I want our students, who are expected to play an important role in the world, to strengthen themselves by nurturing more global views and interacting with various kinds of people. Second, we want to share our approach to education with the world. There are 56 high schools designated as SGHs in Japan, and we want to share our approach with these other schools. Also, the designation as an SGH has increased the number of visitors to our school. I believe transmitting the approach of our school’s all-around education to others will have a positive effect on the future direction of education in Japan. Third, I think being an SGH will augment the education of our school. If you already think that your education is satisfactory, there is little room for improvement.
