Pacific Area As Imperial Japanese Navy Political Project




Japanese Navy theorists created in Taiwan and South Pacific Mandate during the 1930s and 1940s . Such planning was focused narrowly on Economic , political and Military strategic aspects of these exterior Provinces in relation to Japanese Strategic Planning For The Pacific (1905-1940) .

The Navy projected in these areas a great mobilization from the home islands as part of an Imperial plan, which also stimulated and transformed various institutions in Japan. Naval bases were built in Taiwan and the South Pacific Mandate for further conquests in the Dutch Indies and Western possessions in the South Pacific and as the nerve center of Navy operations in the area.

The Mikado and Navy policy in the Taiwan and South Pacific Mandate political project
respected natives as heavy exploitation as slaves. This process produced six modern transformations in these territories and Japan:

  • First, how the administration of such provinces altered and expanded the role of increasingly Commercialized and Nationalizing mass culture in politics when the central government founded industrial and commercial State Monopolies .


  • Second, how mobilization of various Social Group s at home for the empire building in provinces transformed the relationship between State and Society .


  • Third, how the political building in Taiwan and South Pacific Mandate produced close, yet tenuous, alliances between Navy authorities and private economic interest ( Zaibatsu ) groups both in mentioned provinces for exploited raw materials and for Japanese industry.


  • Fourth, how the Japanese administration in those lands offered a wide range of career opportunities for displaced Japanese Intelligentsia "exiled" in the Taiwan and Mandate mainlands, to expand their ideals in area.


  • Fifth, how the Navy's Project in Taiwan and South Pacific Mandate became a " Laboratory " for experimenting with State Capitalism , Collectivism and industrial developmentalism, guiding the Navy's interests which subsequently left their imprints on Japanese domestic economic structures.



The Navy's "Fief" building in the Formosa n Hinterland produced some alliances among Military Officer s, Bureaucrat s, Capitalist s, and Right and Left-wing Intellectual s. Also the example of success in Navy administration of Taiwan and the South Pacific Mandate, how "Naval and Economical Empress" contrasted with Army failures in the Chinese mainland. The Japanese considered for Taiwan and the South Pacific Mandate, how a "magic key" could open the closed doors of southern areas too.

In support of their own proper policies, the central government developed one imperial mass culture and government Propaganda apparatus alongside of managing their own native cultural and social thought in benefit of the propaganda policy. The "Japanese Navy thought on development in Formosa and Mandate" also disappointed those who had a more interior look at proper provinces itself and inklings about what " Taiwan " and South Pacific Mandate meant for the Chinese , Chamorros , Kanaks and Koreans among others.
