It was during this time that Japanese official and popular interest in the region reached its peak. Fueling the Japanese attraction and investment in this region were numerous romanticized images of Manchuria’s bounty and space, issued to bolster enthusiasm for Japanese occupation and development of the region. I examine the Japanese visual production of a utopian Manchuria during the 1930s and early 1940s through a variety of interrelated media and spatial constructions: graphic magazines, photography, exhibition spaces, and urban planning.

  • Ahmed Münir İbrahim's 1910 Journey from Harbin to Tokyo As a Member
    In His Father’s Footsteps? Ahmed Münir İbrahim’s 1910 Journey from Harbin to Tokyo as a Member of the First Ottoman Student Delegation to Japan Ulrich Brandenburg Institute of Asian and Oriental Studies, University of Zurich Abstract In the historiography of Japan’s Interaction with the Turkish and the Muslim World, Ahmed Münir İbrahim (1887-1941) has been overshad- owed by his father, Abdürreşid İbrahim (1857-1944). Abdürreşid, a Rus- sian Tatar scholar and journalist, spent five months in Japan in the first half of 1909. After his journey, he published a two-volume travelogue en- titled Alem-i İslam ve Japonya’da İntişar-ı İslamiyet in Istanbul in 1910. This travelogue has remained one of the most important sources for the history of early Turkish-Japanese relations and has predominantly been regard- ed as an expression of pan-Islamist and pan-Asianist thinking. Similar to his father, Münir too traveled to Japan in December 1910 as a member of the first Ottoman student delegation. Münir and his two companions, Hasan Fehmi and Mehmed Tevfik, were sent to Japan at the request of the pan-Asianist society Ajia Gikai to take up their studies in Tokyo. After his arrival in Japan, Münir published a brief, serialized travelogue in the Ka- zan newspaper Beyanülhak, which relates the students’ journey from Har- bin to Tokyo, alongside other articles on Harbin and Japan. While Münir’s articles in the Ottoman journalSebilürreşad and the Japanese journal Daitō have recently been scrutinized by historians, his travelogue in Beyanülhak has to date remained completely obscure.

Transforming legacy into heritage involves active selection and a valuation of tangible and intangible occupation elements.1 Selected elements may be represented by previously occupied territories in memorial museums dedicated to ‘historic events commemorating mass suffering of some kind’.2 Also referred to as ‘trauma sites’3 or ‘atrocity heritage’,4 museums and landscapes exist as material testimony to the violence which occurred at a certain place. In this chapter, we explore the cultural expression of the legacies of occupation in the city of Harbin, China. In a period of just over 100 years, Harbin was controlled by Russian, Japanese, Soviet and Chinese authorities, experiencing a rapid succession of different regimes. As Wei Song, Robert St Clair and Song Wang comment: ‘The modern history of China is written all over Harbin.’5 Harbin is the capital city of Heilongjiang Province, and is currently undergoing an attempted economic transition from manufacturing to tourism.
