AB - This study explores the complex relationship between multiculturalism and animal rights, with a primary focus on military animals in the Japanese army during wartime. Unlike traditional analyses that mainly focus on the theoretical aspects of animal rights, this research aims to elucidate the practical implications of these rights under the conditions of war. It critically examines how wartime policies in imperial Japan and Manchukuo, which embraced multicultural ideals such as the “symbiotic coexistence of the five races,” informed the treatment of non-human agents such as horses, dogs, and pigeons. These animals were extensively mobilized in military efforts, yet their welfare often contradicted proclaimed multicultural and animal rights values. By integrating historical case studies with theoretical insights, this paper seeks to contribute to the ongoing academic discussion about the intersection of multiculturalism and animal rights, particularly under the extraordinary circumstances of conflict. The findings challenge existing narratives and encourage a reassessment of how multicultural policies practically affect animal rights during times of war.
