説明

This study consists of a provisional synthesis of research on Japan's relations with Africa based on an extensive examinations of pre-war Japanese consular reports regarding economic conditions in Africa. The purpose of this study is to make an interpretation of how economic relations between Japan and Africa developed in the period between 1913 and 1924. Japanese scholars have recently come to appreciate the value of consular reports as historical sources. Consular reports provided detailed information on a wide variety of commercial topics by agent stationed all over the world. They were printed and made available to merchants and businessmen from 1881 to 1943. This study focuses on the fifth series, entitled the Official Commercial Reports (Tsushoo-Koohoo), published from April 1913 to December 1924.<br>After the First World War the number of commercial reports coming from Japanese consuls residing in various parts of Africa and other areas increased and the range of topics grew as well. The reports on North Africa almost all on Egypt and afterwards reports on Tunis, Algeria, French and Spanish Morocco were added. Special attention was paid to the number and tonnage of ships passing through the Suez Canal. There were also reports on cotton crops, on Japanese merchandize such as cotton textiles, knit-ware, matches and brushes. Reports on South Africa focused on the Union of South Africa, Southern and Northern Rhodesia, and South West Africa. The wide range of reports on the Union of South Africa included reports on foreign trade, on mining, on market for wool and wool products, on ports and harbors, on expected yield of cotton crops and on Japanese general merchandize such as cotton goods, medicines, glass bottles, matches, cement, fishing instruments and the like.
