The following is the continuation of the previous chapter.
Shinpei Goto to the bad guys
The NHK program contents of this time are biased so that there is no way to point out one by one, but I will post some points next.
It is probably the most drawing viewer's sympathy to have taken the Taiwanese indigenous people to the Japan - British Exhibition.
However, at that time, ethnic interest was very high, and Darwin, Wallace and Humboldt etc. were around the world looking for unusual things.
It is also a fact that it was the custom of the first country in those days to exhibit it.
As Japan was deciding to join the rank of first-rank at that time, it merely imitated it.
Initially, the first country that had such a custom was bad.
Moreover, the first countries of Western countries aboriginal people who exhibited have done such treatment until the end, but Japan made it possible to live the same life as Japanese very quickly.
Japan has certainly a colony called Taiwan to join the top ranking countries.
However, it is colonization in a situation where no one complains about Qing Nation and foreign countries.
Immediately after the Sino-Japanese War, the three countries of Russia, Germany and France immediately interfered and Japan returned the Liaodong Peninsula, which was transferred from the Qing Dynasty, to the Qing Dynasty, even those three countries naturally took possession of Taiwan is.
And when Taiwan was colonized, Japan decided to "do not colonial policy like the first countries in the West".
But the first country was promoting colonization, it was trying to exploit the colony and was trying to discriminate colored race permanently in colonies.
There was a line that France carried out assimilation policies in Algerians in the program, but there is no idea to raise Algerians there.
France also exploited thoroughly against Vietnam.
However, it decided that Japan would not it such a thing.
In the program, even Goto Shinpei was drawn like a bad guy.
Goto Shinpei was originally a doctor and was responsible for the treatment when Itagaki Taisuke was stabbed.
When that Goto Shinpei went to Taiwan as Governor-General of Taiwan civil affairs minister, Taiwan was "the land of tropical disease", and a decent Shina person did not want to come "benighted lands outside of the imperial influence "was.
Goto Shinpei tried to civilize that Taiwan.
He eradicated typhus and malaria, and made efforts to improve the degree of civilization.
Therefore, it is instead of being targeted for exploitation like in Europe, Japan tried to make it equal to the Japanese inner area by "paying out of Japan's own pocket".
