  • The Settlement Process of the Place Name of the Sea of Japan in the Modern Japan and Korea Geography Education
    The settlement process of the place name of the Sea of Japan in the modern Japan and Korea geography education SHIM Jeongbo* INTRODUCTION For a long time, many studies on place name of the East Sea area have dealt with pre- modern old maps. From the perspective, the current study focuses on geography textbooks that well present the geographical perceptions of people at the modern times, the transitional period of modern times and today. Old maps have national, military, confidential, and artistic characteristics. Although the maps are precious data to understand people's perceptions on regions at the time, ordinary people could not access to them because of their rarity. On the other hand, geography textbooks in the modern times in large quantity have national, social, popular, open, and practical characteristics. Therefore, it is better to focus on geography textbooks in order to examine the place name notation tendency of the East Sea of Korea and Japan. THE SETTLEMENT PROCESS OF THE PLACE NAME OF SEA OF JAPAN IN THE GEOGRAPHY EDUCATION OF THE MODERN JAPAN In Japan, modern education system was organized due to the Meiji Restoration in 1868. Schools were established, and textbooks were published. Figure 1 presents the place name notation of the East Sea in the geography textbook of elementary school and middle school of Japan. As we can see Figure 1, it is an aboriginal place name of Japan (the North Sea) and a foreign place name (Sea of Japan) were appeared at the same time in early Meiji era, and then they were used in school.

  • Forgotten War 3 Russo – Japanese War 1904‐1905
    7/25/2019 Forgotten War 3 Russo – Japanese War 1904‐1905 Background to the Russo‐Japanese War • As the Eighteenth Century drew to a close the Czarist Empire of Russia was militarily the most backward in Europe. However they no doubt envied the other European powers’ ability to obtain colonies around the world. • Russia’s military and ruling class had the dream of having access to warm water ports on the Black Sea with rights to the Mediterranean and similar facilities on the Pacific. The Crimean War put an end to these ambitions in the West. Those in the East brought Russia into conflict with the rising ambitions of Japan. • In 1875 Russia handed over the Kurile Islands to Japan in return for Sakhalin. • In 1896 it intervened on behalf of China against Japan with the backing of both France and Germany and in return received railroad concessions in Manchuria from China. • Russia had already leased Port Arthur and Liaotung from China. In addition it had used the Boxer rising in 1900 as a pretext for reinforcing its military presence in Manchuria in order to one day penetrate into Korea. History of Warfare, H.W. Koch, Bison Books, 1987 1 7/25/2019 Shakhalin Kurile Islands 2 7/25/2019 “Japan, whose geographic position to the Asian mainland was similar to that of the British to the European mainland, could not in the interests of its own security, allow a major European power to dominate the collapsing Chinese Manchu Empire. This situation was the main cause of the war between Russia and Japan in 1904.” H.W.

The Russo-Japanese War Origins and Implications Benjamin Mainardi The 1904-1905 Russo-Japanese War was the first major conflict of the twentieth century and a turning point in the balance of power in East Asia. In the short term, Russia’s defeat helped precipitate the 1905 Russian Revolution and the 1917 October Revolution. More broadly, the aftermath of the war informed Japan’s imperial ambitions in Manchuria—the early stages of World War II in Asia during the 1930s—and continuing Russo-Japanese enmity over Sakhalin Island and the Kuril Island chain. Studying this historical conflict in terms of international relations provides valuable insights into the nature of the conflict and how the past continues to shape modern geopolitics. As a case study, the war offers important lessons in the difficulties of sustained power projection and the exigencies involved in adaptable war planning. Equally important, Russia and Japan’s intractable imperial ambitions coupled with their failures to credibly communicate resolve serve as a cautionary tale on the consequences of inept diplomacy.

  • Japan's Karafuto Governorate (1905–1945): History and Social Memory
    DOI: 10.24411/2658-6789-2019-10011 Japan’s Karafuto Governorate (1905–1945): History and Social Memory S.V. GRISHACHEV Abstract. The history of colonies under the rule of the Japanese Empire in the first half of the 20th century has not been explored well enough so far. For example, the history of Karafuto Governorate (1905–1945), which existed in southern Sakhalin, is covered very little, while some aspects of its history are not known at all. This article focuses on the history of Karafuto Governorate’s formation and its socio-economic structure, namely territorial development after the Russo-Japanese war, its role and status in the colonial system of Japan, the use of the island’s main economic resources and the creation of socio-cultural space, as well as along the memorialization of the colonial past of the Japanese Empire’s northern borders. In addition, this article describes the process of the governorate’s liquidation (it started after the accession of southern Sakhalin to the USSR after the Second World War) followed by passing the governance to the Soviet administration, co-residence of Soviet and Japanese people on the same territory in 1945–1948, the deportation of Japanese people and the fate of the Korean population of the island. The article gives examples of how the memory of the Japanese presence on Sakhalin Island is preserved in Japan and Russia today. Keywords: Karafuto Governorate, colonization, Japanese Empire, Toyohara, the Second World War, social memory. Historical Background From the moment relations between Russia and Japan were established and up to the end of World War II, Sakhalin Island was a territory which the two countries repeatedly divided between themselves.

  • Reform, Foreign Technology, and Leadership in the Russian Imperial and Soviet Navies, 1881–1941
    REFORM, FOREIGN TECHNOLOGY, AND LEADERSHIP IN THE RUSSIAN IMPERIAL AND SOVIET NAVIES, 1881–1941 by TONY EUGENE DEMCHAK B.A., University of Dayton, 2005 M.A., University of Illinois, 2007 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2016 Abstract This dissertation examines the shifting patterns of naval reform and the implementation of foreign technology in the Russian Empire and Soviet Union from Alexander III’s ascension to the Imperial throne in 1881 up to the outset of Operation Barbarossa in 1941. During this period, neither the Russian Imperial Fleet nor the Red Navy had a coherent, overall strategic plan. Instead, the expansion and modernization of the fleet was left largely to the whims of the ruler or his chosen representative. The Russian Imperial period, prior to the Russo-Japanese War, was characterized by the overbearing influence of General Admiral Grand Duke Alexei Alexandrovich, who haphazardly directed acquisition efforts and systematically opposed efforts to deal with the potential threat that Japan posed. The Russo-Japanese War and subsequent downfall of the Grand Duke forced Emperor Nicholas II to assert his own opinions, which vacillated between a coastal defense navy and a powerful battleship-centered navy superior to the one at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. In the Soviet era, the dominant trend was benign neglect, as the Red Navy enjoyed relative autonomy for most of the 1920s, even as the Kronstadt Rebellion of 1921 ended the Red Navy’s independence from the Red Army.

A symposium was held in the Michio Morishima Room at STICERD on 16 March 2004 and attracted a large specialist audience. Since many conference are being held around the world to reassess this event, we chose to entitle our symposium 'On the Periphery of the Russo-Japanese War'. That is, we concentrated on countries like China and Britain whose interests were closely tied up with the war, though they were not themselves belligerents. The following papers were presented: Ian Nish (London School of Economics and Political Science): China and the Russo- Japanese War John Chapman (formerly of the University of Sussex): Britain's Naval Estimation of Japan and Russia, 1894-1905 David Steeds (formerly of the University of Wales, Aberystwyth): Japan at War: The Diary of a British Observer, 1904 Sebastian Dobson (Librarian, the Japan Society, London): Lt.-General Sir Ian Hamilton and his Scrapbook The first two appear in this pamphlet; the last two will appear shortly in Part II.

  • Battle of Tsushima Was Real Network Centric Warfare
    A edition Battle of Tsushima was Real Network Centric Warfare Rear ADM (Ret.) Kazuo ITOH I n t r o d u c t i o n 1 NCW Concept 2 Outline of the Battle of Tsushima 3 Information and Communications Network during the Battle of Tsushima 4 Telegraphs in Russia and Great Doubling of the Baltic Fleet 5 The Outcome of the War, from the Viewpoint of NCW Factors Conclusion Introduction The 21st century is the age of information. War in the information age is said to be Network Centric Warfare (NCW) rather than Platform Centric Warfare (PCW). The word “NCW” first appeared in public in the thesis written by then Vice Admiral Cebrowski.1 He talked about the Japanese Imperial Navy, which won the Battle of Tsushima in the Russo-Japanese War, first proving on an actual battle site the effectiveness of NCW, and the establishment of information and communications network, and the proper implementation of wireless telegraphs, was contributing factors to the Navy’s victory.2 In this paper, I am going to explore how the information and communications network was established, how wireless telegraphs were operated, and how network actually contributed to the triumph, during which NCW was truly displayed. These were the crown of the sweat and blood efforts by our patriotically-minded forerunners and predecessors, as well as the result of the brilliant team work between sectors of the military, the government and individuals. 1 NCW Concept (1) Background The Gulf War, which the Iraq started in 1991, ended surprisingly without much difficulty with the defeat of Iraq.

  • Political Strategies Toward Ending the Sino-Japanese and Russo-Japanese Wars
    Political Strategies toward Ending the Sino-Japanese and Russo-Japanese Wars Ryuji Hirano Introduction The Sino-Japanese and Russo-Japanese Wars were both wars that Japan was able to end while still victorious. In that sense, they can be termed successful wars. However, in neither case did Japan necessarily have its eyes set at the outset on how specifically to end the war. Though these wars were fought against major powers, Japanese forces made spectacular advances and won a seemingly endless succession of victories in the initial phases of the wars. In that sense, Japan’s experience in these wars had much in common with its wars during the Showa period, that is, the second Sino-Japanese War (the China Incident) and the Pacific War (the Greater East Asian War). In its wars during the Showa era, Japan could not uncover any clues as to how to end them. The course of the wars became stalemated or was reversed, and ultimately Japan was forced to face defeat. While the first Sino-Japanese and Russo-Japanese Wars were fought before the advent of the age of total war, why was Japan able to bring these two wars, which were fought during the Meiji period, to peace while still victorious, unlike the wars in the Showa period? There are three trends in studies on the first Sino-Japanese and Russo-Japanese Wars. The first studies the wars from a military history perspective. Such research has been done from immediately after the wars ended up to the present day, beginning with officially published military histories compiled by the Army General Staff

  • Differences Regarding Togo's Surprise Attack on Port
    DIFFERENCES REGARDING TOGO’S SURPRISE ATTACK ON PORT ARTHUR Aizawa Kiyoshi In the first half of the twentieth century, Japan fought two wars— the Russo-Japanese War of 1904–5 and the Pacific War of 1941– 1945—against Russia and America respectively, the two great powers that would go on to divide the world during the second half of the century. Moreover, in both of these conflicts Japan opened hostili- ties with a surprise naval attack. In challenging great powers like Russia and America, Japan considered it essential to take advantage of surprise to inflict initial physical and psychological damage because of the limits the Japanese economy imposed on war making cap- abilities. The initiative gained, it was hoped, would carry Japan through to victory. Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet and Pearl Harbor attack planner Yamamoto Isoroku, opened the Pacific War with America with the following observations: We have much to learn from the Russo-Japanese War. The lessons concerning the opening of hostilities are: 1) favorable opportunities were gained by opening the war with a sudden attack on the main enemy fleet; 2) it is regrettable, but true, although there are exceptions, that the morale of our torpedo division was not necessarily very high and its capabilities were insufficient; and 3) both the planning and implementation of the blockade operation were not sufficiently thor- ough. We must make efforts, based on these successes and failures, to handle the opening of the war with America much more successfully. Furthermore, we must be prepared to act decisively to secure victory on Day One of hostilities.1 1 National Defense College, War History Office (Boueichou Bouei Kenshusho Senshishitsu), War History Series: The Hawaii Operation (Senshi Sousho Hawai Sakusen), (Asagumo Shinbunsha, 1967), p.
