ABSTRACT Science and technology have been paramount features of any modernized nation. In Japan they played an important role in the modernization and militarization of the nation, as well as its democratization and subsequent economic growth. Science and technology highlight the promises of a better tomorrow and future utopia, but their application can also present ethical issues. In fiction, they have historically played a significant role. Fictions of science continue to exert power via important multimedia platforms for considerations of the role of science and technology in our world. And, because of their importance for the development, ideologies and policies of any nation, these considerations can be correlated with the deliberation of the role of a nation in the world, including its internal and external images and imaginings.

Contents Introduction Chapter 1: "Architects" Were Born - Graduates of the Imperial College of Engineering Chapter 2: Competitions - Contests by Architects Chapter 3: Let's Take a Look at Modern Architectures in Japan! - From the World of Landmark Guidebooks Introduction After the Meiji Restoration of 1868, western style buildings designed by Japanese architects came to be seen as symbols of Japan's rapid modernization. This 16th volume of the small digital exhibition series "Kaleidoscope of Books" introduces materials relating to those architects, as well as competitions - their "battle fields." Additionally, guide books and photo books with images of modern architecture are also provided in this exhibition, and prove that those buildings were later regarded as famous. Chapter 1: "Architects" Were Born- Graduates of the Imperial College of Engineering The history of Japanese modern architectures dates back to the last days of the Tokugawa shogunate. Naturally, there were people who engaged in construction before that, but Japanese "architects" - specialists who designed and oversaw buildings - were born in the early Meiji period, when the technologies and cultures of the western countries were introduced. Chapter 1 shows the dawn of the world of architecture in Japan by describing people who formed the foundation of Japanese modern architecture and the education of the Imperial College of Engineering they went to.

Steinhoff, Chairperson Hagen Koo David T. Johnson Sun-ki Chai Lonny E. Carlile Keywords: Social movements, Political process, Protest cycles, Abeyance, Networks, Relational sociology ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Copyright © 2017 Yoko Iida To my father, Hiroshi Iida, in celebration of the ultimate optimism. And to my son, Yohji Eduard Iida, in celebration of the universal humanity. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation is a result of many helping hands. I am greatly indebted especially to two very generous persons: First is my chairperson, Dr. Patricia G. Steinhoff, who guided me throughout my student life at UH Mānoa with her knowledge of Japanese society, scholarly well- roundedness, kindness, and warm-heartedness. I can never repay her for the time and energy she had invested in my work, but at least, I would like to express my sincere gratitude and respect to her here. Second is my father, Hiroshi Iida, without whose support and willingness to babysit my newborn son when I needed the time for writing, it was not possible for me to complete the dissertation. “The 1960s generation” himself, his personal accounts provided invaluable insights to this dissertation. I would also like to thank my committee members, Drs. Hagen Koo, David Johnson, Sun-ki Chai, and Lonny Carlile, whose expertise and constructiveness helped tremendously to sharpen my analyses.
