AB - This research probes colonial efforts to promote physical fitness and produce healthy people during wartime Manchukuo. The colonial authority in wartime Manchukuo considered healthy human bodies as a crucial human resource. It thus strictly monitored its subjects with physical examinations and fitness assessments. Enforcing the national physical fitness system in 1941 led to heightened assessment results. After the Pacific War, Manchukuo’s colonial toughened its mobilization system with more stringent health policies aimed at producing physically strong youth and students. The National Physical Fitness Act of 1942 obliged every man, aged 17 to 19, to take a physical fitness test, including physical strength and health checks (e.g., tuberculosis). The findings reveal that the colonial authority in Manchukuo developed physical strength and management as a means of mobilizing its population, enticing its subjects with ‘fitness excellence certificates’ while deeming others unfit and remanding that they receive coaching or extra training.
