Outline and Purpose of the Course	Discontent still remain among the peoples of East Asia regarding Japanese people's historical awareness. Many countries in Southeast Asia, directly or indirectly, suffered from Japans' rule in a variety of forms in the past. However, as yet, few countries in Southeast Asia have raised their voices in complaint about the damage they suffered, in comparison with the countries in East Asia, either on the level of the general populace or on the level of the nation state.(The reasons for this will be considered in the class.) Because of this, it is doubtful that many people in Japan are even properly aware that in the first half of the 20th century Japan occupied Southeast Asia. Whatever topics we choose to study in Southeast Asia, and whatever disciplines we choose to study them with, it is essential that we understand the relationship that Japan had with the area we choose. In this course of lectures we will therefore review the relations that Japan has had with every country (or region) in Southeast Asia. We will also look at texts that treat these topics in more detail, as required.
Course Goals	During the Asia-Pacific War, we will learn how Japan ruled Southeast Asian regions, and compare ways of ruling in each region to understand an overall picture. Further, it is necessary to know discourses of each country in Southeast Asia about Japanese occupation.
