My research is focused on Japanese intellectuals¡¯ thoughts of Asia during postwar time. I am studying on the discussion about modernization, nationalism and Asianism with a comparative view, to figure out the ¡°Asia as Method¡±.

While studying Japanese Studies and Anthropology, I conduct research by listening to and writing on the historical experiences of people involved with colonialism, considering the meaning behind these experiences. In particular, I conduct field work on the relationship between Japanese colonialism and Taiwanese indigenous peoples.
