    THE TRIAL WITHIN: NEGOTIATING JUSTICE AT THE INTERNATIONAL MILITARY TRIBUNAL FOR THE FAR EAST, 1946-1948 by JAMES BURNHAM SEDGWICK B.A. (Honours), Acadia University, 2002 M.A., The University of Canterbury, 2004 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (History) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) July 2012 © James Burnham Sedgwick, 2012 Abstract This dissertation explores the inner-workings of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East (IMTFE). Commonly known as the Tokyo trial, Tokyo tribunal, or Tokyo IMT, the IMTFE brought Japan’s wartime leadership to justice for aggression, crimes against humanity, and war crimes committed during World War II. Using rare sources in three languages from public and private collections in eight countries, this dissertation presents a multi-perspective experiential history of the IMTFE in operation. By placing the court in a distinct international moment that produced the United Nations, the Nuremberg trial, the Genocide Convention, and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, among other outgrowths of global community, this work explores the IMTFE as both a groundbreaking judicial undertaking and a pioneering multilateral institution. Other scholars use overly reductive and judgmental constructs based on outside-looking-in perspectives to assess the court’s legal or moral legitimacy without appreciating or detailing its nuance and complexity. This dissertation prefers an inside-out view to explain the trial, not judge it. It describes the IMTFE as a collective endeavour and experience behind the scenes. Chapters review the personal, emotional, administrative, logistical, legal, political, and global dimensions of internationalism in action.

  • Laurens Van Der Post and Japan
    Section 3 Laurens van der Post and Japan Inaga Shigemi International Research Center for Japanese Studies, Japan Laurens van der Post (1903-1996), along with his co-voyager to Japan, William Plomer, is one of the key literary figures in South Africa's relationship with twentieth-Century Japan. In retracing Post's experiences with Japan and the Japanese, this paper investigates into ethical dimensions of cross-cultural encounters symbolically cristallized in Van der Post's prose full of evocative and poetic power. His first voyage to Japan coincided with the very first Japanese attempt to open commercial trade with South Africa in the 20s, and his friendship with Mori Katsue, the Japanese captain of the ship, Canada Maru, lasted until the Katsue's death in his 90s. While Katsue's image provided Van der Post with the archetypal image of the Japanese, his first experience at sea would later be developed in his adventure novel on whale catching, strongly evoking Harman Mervil. In his last years, Van der Post retraced his discovery of Japan as Yet Being Someone Other (1983). Some Japanese sources on Captain Katsue, which remain inaccessible to non­ Japanese scholars, can be useful to a better understanding of the fictional dimension implied in this recollection. It would be no exaggeration to suppose that without his Japanese experience 'in 1926, Van der Post could not have survived the Japanese captivity in Java, almost twenty years later. The Bar of Shadow is among the outcomes of his experience of Japanese P.O.W. camps. Although not always highly estimated by native English readers, The Christmas Trilogy, including this story, strangely appealed to the Japanese imagination.

  • 60Th Anniversary Papers
    Session 1: The War in the Far East Chair: Dr Philip Towle, Centre of International Studies, University of Cambridge Commentator: Colonel Graham Dunlop OBE MSc, Centre for Second World War Studies, University of Edinburgh, Royal Marines (Retired) Keiichiro Komatsu, Author of ‘Origins of the Pacific War’ Could the War have been avoided? (because of the length of this abstract, it is included without footnotes) The study of misunderstanding and misperception, and the persistence of stereotypes and ‘images’, has been an important part of the growth of the discipline of international relations since only as recently as the Second World War. Mutual misconception grew between the two sides in the Pacific War over a long period and not from just immediately it. The cumulative effect of such perception gaps in the talks preceding the Pacific War contributed to the outbreak of the conflict. The conflict was then precipitated by faulty communication, which included the significant role played by ‘Magic’ (the decoded intercepts of Japanese diplomatic messages). Serious mistranslations and misinterpretation in Magic were significant factors in the failure to reach an agreement in the talks leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor and thus contributed to the outbreak of war. During Japan’s ‘seclusion’ which lasted nearly 250 years, Japanese and Western peoples had very limited materials from which to learn about each other until the middle of the 19th century, with the exception of those written in the late 16th and early 17th century. This means that the initial images of each other developed in the late 16th and early 17th century were more or less ‘preserved’ until the 1860s when Japan decided to end her seclusion policy and opened up the country to the Western powers.

Although there wasn’t an obvious moment of epiphany, my project eventually underwent what was tantamount to a Copernican Revo- lution. Perhaps the matter-of-fact narratives about the foreign workers’ trajectories to Japan bored me. The reams of documents and statistics I collected didn’t seem to lead anywhere, leaving me with answers in search of questions. Here the efflorescence of whiteness studies in the United States was inspiring. Rather than taking the majority population—whether white Americans or mainstream Japanese—for granted, the challenge was to explicate why and how the majority became the norm that escaped scru- tiny, free from historical reflection or contemporary critique.

  • Historical Perception in Postwar Japan – Concerning the Pacific War –
    Historical Perception in Postwar Japan – Concerning the Pacific War – SHOJI Jun’ichiro Introduction Historical perception of the Pacific War is a continuous source of contention, as evidenced by the debate surrounding the adoption of the “No War Resolution” by the House of Representatives to mark the 50th anniversary of the end of the war, and the more recent debate on the issue of new history textbooks in schools. Historical perception can be broadly divided into three categories. 1 The first, reminiscences and recollections derived from personal experience, differ dramatically according to the individuals, places and experiences lived, whether on the battlefield, in internment, during air raids, or in other situations. “Memory” and “testimony,” terms that have recently become a part of the social vernacular, fall into this category. The second, “public memory,” deals with the perception shared by a nation or society, as molded by education, media, family and other sources. The third category is historical perception in academic accounts shaped by historians through analyses of historic material. These three aspects of historical perception do not necessarily coincide. The reminiscences of individuals must be verified and extracted before they quality as “public memory,” or historical research, and discrepancies in the goals of history as taught in the classroom and history as academic study frequently arise. In the United States, for example, the Smithsonian Museum exhibit on the atom bomb planned in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the end of World War II generated intense debate. In this case, “public memory,” which justifies the dropping of the atom bomb with the argument that by doing so the lives of a great number of U.S.

  • The Influence of Japanese Anthropology in the Mainland of China: Centered on the Post-1980S
    The 4th JASCA International Symposium Keynote Lecture 2 The Influence of Japanese Anthropology in the Mainland of China: Centered on the Post-1980s Zhengai Liu Chinese Academy of Social Sciences Abstract: This paper aims to summarize the academic influence of Japanese anthropology in the Mainland of China. It focuses on the post-1980s and also involves The Customary Practice Survey of China Village (中国 農村慣行調査) by the prewar South Manchuria Railway Company (満鉄 — hereinafter referred to as “SMRC”). The “Japanese Anthropology” mentioned in this paper refers to that based in Japan. The researchers include not only ethnic Japanese nationals, but also their Chinese counterparts working in Japan, Japanese people studying (or working) in China, and also Chinese Mainland scholars with anthropology training in Japan. The results of the research are not restricted to the Japanese language; there are more anthropology works in Chinese translation or published in Chinese. Key words: Chinese anthropology, Japanese anthropology, Academic Translation. This essay has been divided into several topics, with several representative scholars listed in each topic and introduction of the influence of their major research findings, theories and methods on the Chinese Mainland. First, I introduce the Japanese scholars’ ethnic minority studies of China, rice cultivating culture, Laurisilvae Culture Theory (照葉樹林文化論) and the ecological civilization concept. Second, I take up the South Manchuria Railway Company survey (The Customary Practice Survey of North China villages). Next, I consider research into Chinese society, including village communities, lineages, folk religions and Hakka studies, etc. Fourth, I move on to anthropological subfield research, such as tourism anthropology, ecological anthropology, religious anthropology, business anthropology, economic anthropology, landscape anthropology and sport anthropology, etc.
