  • Sino-American Relations and the Origins of the Pacific War, 1933 1941
    東京大学アメリカ太平洋研究 第 12 号 63 寄稿論文 The China Card: Sino-American Relations and the Origins of the Pacific War, 1933 1941 Sidney Pash There has been no shortage of explanations among American historians and writers for the December 7, 1941 Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Charles Beard’s President Roosevelt and the Coming of the War, 1941, for example, singles out a duplicitous President Roosevelt for secretly maneuvering Japan into war, while more balanced studies, such as Herbert Feis’ The Road to Pearl Harbor, focus on rigid American diplomacy and bureaucratic infighting. For many Americans, however, a disaster the magnitude of Pearl Harbor requires an explanation that focuses on American virtues rather than American shortcomings. And for this reason, postwar historiography is replete with works such as Paul Schroeder’s The Axis Alliance and Japanese-American Relations, 1941,which argue that Pearl Harbor and the ensuing Pacific War resulted in large measure from the magnanimous American decision to defend China from predatory Japanese imperialism. Just a decade after Bataan and Iwo Jima became part of the American lexicon, not to mention, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Schroeder explained that the last decade’s bloodletting came about because America went to war to save China. He maintained that in the final run up to Pearl Harbor “American diplomats made it clear that the United States would accept war with Japan in preference to any settlement between Japan and China which did not restore intact China’s territorial and administrative integrity.” 1) Unfortunately, nothing could be further from the truth. Rather than magnanimity, war resulted in large measure from a United States strategy that sought to use China to contain Japanese expansion.

  • War Crimes in the Philippines During WWII Cecilia Gaerlan
    War Crimes in the Philippines during WWII Cecilia Gaerlan When one talks about war crimes in the Pacific, the Rape of Nanking instantly comes to mind.Although Japan signed the 1929 Geneva Convention on the Treatment of Prisoners of War, it did not ratify it, partly due to the political turmoil going on in Japan during that time period.1 The massacre of prisoners-of-war and civilians took place all over countries occupied by the Imperial Japanese Army long before the outbreak of WWII using the same methodology of terror and bestiality. The war crimes during WWII in the Philippines described in this paper include those that occurred during the administration of General Masaharu Homma (December 22, 1941, to August 1942) and General Tomoyuki Yamashita (October 8, 1944, to September 3, 1945). Both commanders were executed in the Philippines in 1946. Origins of Methodology After the inauguration of the state of Manchukuo (Manchuria) on March 9, 1932, steps were made to counter the resistance by the Chinese Volunteer Armies that were active in areas around Mukden, Haisheng, and Yingkow.2 After fighting broke in Mukden on August 8, 1932, Imperial Japanese Army Vice Minister of War General Kumiaki Koiso (later convicted as a war criminal) was appointed Chief of Staff of the Kwantung Army (previously Chief of Military Affairs Bureau from January 8, 1930, to February 29, 1932).3 Shortly thereafter, General Koiso issued a directive on the treatment of Chinese troops as well as inhabitants of cities and towns in retaliation for actual or supposed aid rendered to Chinese troops.4 This directive came under the plan for the economic “Co-existence and co-prosperity” of Japan and Manchukuo.5 The two countries would form one economic bloc.

  • No Foreign Dissem S-E-C-R-E-T No Foreign Dissem Japan
    S-E-C-R-E-T NO FOREIGN DISSEM JAPAN Yoshio KODAMA Rightist Leader Yoshio Kodama, notorious since the 1920s for his connections with right-wing and underworld groups, is widely reported to have high-level con- nections within the Liberal-Democratic Party (LDP) and has been described by many sources as a power- ful figure in behind-the-scenes political maneu- vering and one of the real "strong men" of present- day Japan. He has been reported for some years to be closely associated with Ichiro Kono, a leading contender for the LDP presidency and resultant prim ministership, and with BaMboku Ono, LDP Vice Presi- ( I 9510 dent, both of whom are themselves in possession of somewhat unsavory reputations. In February 1963 Kodama figured in rumors of scandals in the negotiations to normalize relations between Japan and the Republic of Korea (ROK). These rumors concerned the acceptance of large sums of money and participation in irregular business transactions on the part of LDP leaders, particularly Ono, in return for their efforts to promote successful conclusion of the talks. The nature of Kodamas involvement in the Japan-ROK negotiations has not been detailed, but according to several sources, he is close to former ROK intelligence chief Kim Chong- pil and has been an important channel from Kim to the LDP and the Jap- anese government. A Japanese newspaper correspondent has alleged that Kodama was responsible for arranging Onos December 1962 trip to Korea and had persuaded Ono and Kono to go along with the Japan-ROK agreement. Kodama was born on 18 February 1911 in FUkushima prefecture to a family considered of the samurai rank.

PREFACE This is a study of the Greater East Asia Co- Prosperity Sphere with emphasis on the influence of geo­ political thought in the formation of its concept. It is therefore a rather technical study of one aspect of Japanese diplomacy. Practically no studies have been made con­ cerning the influence of geopolitics on Japanese foreign policy. It is not the purpose of this study to attaok or defend the geopolitics or the concept of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere at any stage of its development, but rather to understand it. The principal data used in preparing this work are: (l) Various records of the International Military Tribunal of the Far East; (2) microfilmed arohives of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 1868-1945; (3) materials written by Japanese geopoliticians as well as Haushofer; and (4) letters from authorities in the different aspects of this work.
