Thesis (Ph.D.)--Harvard University, 1998.

This study uses the Taiwan Development Corporation (1936-1946) to examine Japanese imperialism in Taiwan. The colonial state pursued two major goals in Taiwan: economic development through rice agriculture and sugar manufacturing and the creation of a subimperial sphere of influence in South China and Southeast Asia, the so-called nanpo. The TDC, a semi-public national policy corporation, was instrumental in implementing both. It integrated development and expansion into a form of developmental imperialism distinct from the military expansion in Northeast Asia that defines Japanese imperialism in existing historiography.

520 $a This study uses the Taiwan Development Corporation (1936-1946) to examine Japanese imperialism in Taiwan. The colonial state pursued two major goals in Taiwan: economic development through rice agriculture and sugar manufacturing and the creation of a subimperial sphere of influence in South China and Southeast Asia, the so-called nanpo. The TDC, a semi-public national policy corporation, was instrumental in implementing both. It integrated development and expansion into a form of developmental imperialism distinct from the military expansion in Northeast Asia that defines Japanese imperialism in existing historiography.
520 $a The company engaged in a broad range of businesses in Taiwan and abroad. On Taiwan, it initially concentrated on land development and agriculture. In the late 1930s, however, it shifted to chemicals, metals, and mining. This was part of a larger effort to change the role of the Taiwanese economy within the empire from a periphery supplying raw materials to the Japanese metropole into a separate industrial core processing raw materials from its own periphery in the nanpo. Overseas, the company focused on French Indochina, where it mined and exported ore for processing in Taiwan and Japan, and Hainan Island, where it tried to create a "second Taiwan" by applying the development experience of Japan's first island colony. In both sites, the TDC, backed by the colonial state, sought a dominant position in competition with other public and private Japanese interests. TDC programs overseas attempted to link industrialization in Justin Adam Schneider Taiwan with an exclusive subimperial sphere in the nanpo.
520 $a While absorption into the Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere and Japanese defeat prevented this, the TDC's history demonstrates that Taiwan was as much an imperial as a colonial project, that Taihoku was as important as Tokyo in the early southward advance, and that competition among Japanese interests, as well as between Japanese and Taiwanese, was crucial in shaping the course of Japanese imperialism. The firm's legacy also contributed to postwar Taiwanese development, through both the physical capital of its plants, one of which is still in operation, and the human capital of its former employees, some of whom founded their own firms.
