Thesis (Ph.D.)--Yale University, 1991.

This dissertation attempts to reconstruct and analyze the kominka movement--the Japanization campaign launched by the Japanese colonial government in Taiwan during the period 1937-1945 which aimed at "making the Taiwanese true Japanese." Prior to Taiwan's annexation by Japan in 1895, Taiwan was a territory of China. In 1937, the Second Sino-Japanese War broke out and the kominka movement was essentially a wartime policy undertaken by Japan both to erase the Han Chinese identity of the Taiwanese people and to enhance the loyalty of the Taiwanese to the mother country. The kominka movement included the national language movement, the name-changing program, the military recruitment campaign, and reforms of native religion and social customs. The reforms of religion and customs entirely failed; however, the Taiwanese responses to the other three campaigns were complex and diverse. Official statistics show that by 1945 over 80% of the Taiwanese were capable of speaking Japanese, and about 7% of the Taiwanese may have adopted Japanese names. As to the military recruitment of the Taiwanese, the appearance of an overwhelming number of "volunteers" enabled the colonial government to claim great success in this campaign. On the other hand, official statistics were often highly inflated and cannot adequately reflect historical reality. Nonetheless, the kominka movement did not fail completely. While the name-changing program encountered obstinate resistance, the national language movement was the most successful, and the military recruitment campaign seemingly aroused enthusiasm among young Taiwanese. On the whole, the kominka movement exerted a great impact on young Taiwanese who came to maturity during the eight years of intense Japanization. In the final analysis, the kominka movement failed in cultural and religious aspects; thus it did not achieve its ultimate goal of transforming the Taiwanese into true Japanese. Nevertheless, this Japanization movement caused national identity problems among the young generation, and consequently left a far-reaching impact on post-colonial Taiwan.Subjects--Topical Terms:
