Resumen de Love of nation and Heimat-oriented education in Imperial Japan of the 1930s: the rhetoric of Japanese identity in peripheral regions

Toshiko Ito

  • -oriented education (local-oriented education) flourished in Imperial Japan of the 1930s, inspired by Heimatkunde (local studies) in Germany’s elementary schools. This paper explores the rhetoric which naturalised the shift from love of Heimat to love of nation in Heimat-oriented education in Imperial Japan of the 1930s, focusing on Heimat-oriented education in peripheral regions to which Japanese identity and non-Japanese identity were attributed. Heimat-oriented education in peripheral regions was conducted mostly in accordance with the official rhetoric “similar but not equal”, yet also partially putting a spin on it. The spin had the effect of strengthening the naturalisation of the shift from love of Heimat to love of nation
