Suggestions for Future Research

As established in this thesis the Japanese period brought changes to Taiwan. Over time the Japanese developed Japanese sentiments and contributed to a single community among the Chinese settlers on the island. However, in addition to the Taiwanese, Taiwan is inhabited by numerous aboriginal communities, for future research I will recommend scholarship on the aboriginal population and their meeting with the Japanese.

Second, my research covered the Japanese rule in Taiwan covering the time span from 1895 to 1945. In 1945 the Japanese period came to an abrupt ending as the Japanese lost the war and Taiwan was seeded back to China. The Chinese government started the process of making the population Chinese again. Postwar Taiwan culminated in the 228 Incident, bringing martial law to the island. For future research I will recommend study on the transition for Taiwanese from members of the Japanese Empire to members of Republic of China. I will especially focus on the role of the Kominka generation; the

generation aged 15 to 25 at the end of the war, having reached adulthood during the time of Japanese mobilization and propaganda during the war.

Third I argue that the Japanese period is important in understanding current relations between China, Taiwan, and Japan. For future research I recommend looking at the role of the Japanese period in international relations between the three countries. In addition research of institutional and cultural vestiges from the colonial era in

cotemporary Taiwan will bring further information to the identity debate, and more understanding of the cross straight relations.

As seen in my analysis of contestation, different strata of the Taiwanese society experienced different changes to their identity. For future research I recommend analysis of the geographical as social vestiges from the different aspects of Japanese colonial rule, applied to contemporary Taiwanese scholarship. It is evident that some local communities experienced more changes to their identity than others. For future research I will

recommend looking at local differences during the colonial era, and compare it to developments in the postcolonial era.
