Bursaries awarded

CIRN has awarded doctoral bursaries to two applicants, in a very strong field.

Mi Kwi CHO (Cambridge): ‘Koreans Across the Sea: Migration to the Metropole between 1910-1953’
In exploring the mechanisms of the Japanese empire, my research takes bottom-up and top-down approaches and reveals, on the one hand, how the empire regulated the mobility and mobilization of Koreans, and why it permitted the migration of subversive Koreans to Japan when they supposedly caused endless animosity.

谷川 舜 TANIGAWA Shun (Waseda): 「諸帝国の中における近代日本の植民地言論の誕生」
諸帝国がせめぎ合う時代において外地経営を円滑化するため、本国を含むあらゆる介入から排他的な領域とするべく、近代化の魅力によって現地人も組み込んだ植民地紳士=エスタブリッシュメントによる「公共圏」が日本の植民地に成立したのである。

Thank you to all those who submitted applications. The standard was extremely high.
