授業概要		本講義は、台湾における植民地主義の遺産と未完の脱植民地化の課題を考察する。第二次世界大戦後、中国国民党（KMT）による権威主義体制が四十年以上続き、日本統治時代や太平洋戦争について公然と議論することは抑圧されてきた。1990年代の民主化とともに、これまで沈黙させられてきた歴史が再び浮上し、アイデンティティ、記憶、そして台湾の世界における位置をめぐる論争を引き起こした。 ポストコロニアル理論の視点を通じて、植民地近代、記憶の政治、文化遺産の政治がどのように現代台湾社会を形作っているのかを検討する。具体的には、日本統治の再解釈、戒厳期の遺産に対処する移行期正義の役割、先住民の権利をめぐる政治、そして中国・日本・国際社会との関係の変容を扱う。 受講生は歴史的文献、文学、映画、文化的実践を批判的に分析することを通じて、台湾の植民地的過去がいかに現在のアイデンティティ、主権、主体性をめぐる闘争に影響を与え続けているのかを探究する。本講義は、国民国家中心の物語を超えて台湾を捉え、帝国、脱植民地化、グローバル・モダニティをめぐる広範な議論の中に位置づけることを目指す。  This course investigates the contested legacies of colonialism and the unfinished project of decolonization in Taiwan. For over four decades after World War II, the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) maintained an authoritarian regime that suppressed open discussion of the Japanese colonial period and the Asia-Pacific War. With democratization in the 1990s, these silenced histories resurfaced, fueling debates about identity, memory, and Taiwan’s place in the world. Through a postcolonial lens, we will examine how colonial modernity, memory politics, and cultural heritage shape contemporary Taiwanese society. Topics covered in this course include the reinterpretation of Japanese colonial rule, the role of transitional justice in addressing martial law legacies, the politics of Indigenous rights, and the island’s shifting relationship with China, Japan, and the global community. By critically engaging with historical texts, literature, film, and cultural practices, students will explore how Taiwan’s colonial past continues to inform present struggles over identity, sovereignty, and subjectivity. Ultimately, the course encourages students to think beyond nation-centered narratives and to situate Taiwan within broader discussions of empire, decolonization, and global modernity.

授業形態 （内容）		This course is structured into five sections. In the first section, we will explore how the Kuomintang (KMT) established its rule over Taiwan through mechanisms of political repression and economic development. We will examine how, despite facing a series of international crises in the 1970s, Taiwan eventually underwent a democratic transformation in the 1990s. The second section focuses on the consequences of democratization, particularly the shift in national identity from "Chinese" to "Taiwanese." We will analyze how this transformation has been facilitated by the rewriting of history and how it has intensified tensions between Taiwan and Mainland China. In the third section, we turn to the phenomenon of "pro-Japan" sentiment in Taiwan. Why do many Taiwanese people retain fond memories of the Japanese colonial period? We will consider how colonial-era structures are preserved and celebrated, and how representations of the Japanese past appear in contemporary Taiwanese popular culture. The fourth section is devoted to the issues faced by Taiwan's Indigenous peoples. We will investigate their postcolonial condition and consider the possibilities for justice and historical redress within Taiwan's pluralistic society. Finally, in the fifth section, we will reflect on Taiwan's future, examining its complex and evolving relationships with Mainland China, the United States, and Japan.
