AB - The aim of this study is to historically examine a trend of the Asia-Pacific research in Japan since modern nationalism setablished there. The main focus is on who has researched the Asia-Pacific region in Japan, why has studied it and which area has been studied so far. Also, I move on to examine who has helped the study and what precisely has done as a time order. By dwelling upon these examination, I will explore the characteristics of the Asia-Pacific area study carried out in Japan.
Edward Said has pointed out that an area study is an outgrowth of imperialism and the study itself is 'ugly neologism.' Said's opinion can be applied to the Asia-Pacific study during the pre-war period. The area study in Japan was for the purpose of the war under the theme of imperialism during the pre and inter-war period. As a result, the study made a contribution to the establishment of identifying of the Asia-Pacific area and Japanese holding a prominent position. The study about the Asia-Pacific area in the post-war period pays attention to a power of Asia under reflection on pre-war period and shifts its work frame from 'domination' to 'living together.' Reorganization of the study system also gives an energy to the Asia-Pacific area study.
