Becoming Japanese: Colonial Taiwan and the Politics of Identity Formation by Leo Ching, ISBN 0520225538 Summary
Becoming "Japanese": Colonial Taiwan and the Politics of Identity Formation
Becoming Japanese: Colonial Taiwan and the Politics of Identity Formation Full Description
IN 1895, Japan acquired Taiwan as its first formal colony after a resounding victory in the Sino-Japanese war. For the next fifty years, Japanese rule devastated and transformed the entire socioeconomic and political fabric of Taiwanese society. In Becoming "Japanese", Leo Ching examines the formation of Taiwanese political and cultural identities under the dominant Japanese colonial discourse of assimilation (doka) and imperialization (kominka) from the early 1920s to the end of the Japanese Empire in 1945. Becoming "Japanese" analyzes the ways in which the Taiwanese struggled, negotiated, and collaborated with Japanese colonialism during the cultural practices of assimilation and imperialization. It chronicles a historiography of colonial identity formations that delineates the shift from a collective and heterogeneous political horizon to a personal and inner struggle of becoming "Japanese". Successfully bridging history and literary studies, this bold and imaginative book rethinks the history of Japanese rule in Taiwan by radically expanding its approach to colonial discourses. Showing the ways that Taiwanese identities were produced in the interstices of nationalist China, imperialist Japan, and colonial Taiwan, Ching transcends the national boundaries that all too often enclose our studies of colonial discourses. His deft analysis and movement from the colonial politics of nationalism to postcolonial identity politics in Taiwan change the way we look at both.
