Data sources and collection

This study is situated in the fields of education, political studies, and history. In addition, cultural issues are important to this study, since it deals with the Occupation period when a Western culture imposed itself on Japan. Documents relevant to these fields and this period were analyzed, and interviews were conducted to explore the following topic questions:

1 How did education, especially English language education, in middle-level schools in Japan during World War II and the subsequent Occupation reflect the policies and shed light on the apparent mindset of the political power holders of the times?

2 How might Japanese culture and Japanese cultural mores explain some of the responses to those events?

3 What was the perceived impact of these policies on teachers and students of English during these two periods?
