I am researching how local commodity market trends and related policies promoted economic advancement in Japanese colonies, analyzing the relationship between the expansion of colonial trade in pre-war Japan and the quantitative/qualitative transformation of the local commodity markets using salt and rice as examples of essential commodities. To this end, I am surveying and collecting historical materials which exist in Japan as well as in former colonies, attempting a multifaceted approach that includes qualitative analysis using descriptive materials such as letters and handwritten notes as well as quantitative analysis using ledgers and price data.
