History of Japan’s Foreign Relations

Dr. Kajima conceived of the publication in commemoration of the 100th Anniversary of the Meiji Restoration of 1868. The “History” covers the entire period from the end of the Tokugawa era through the Meiji, Taisho and Showa eras. 38 volumes were published between 1970 and 1980. In 1973, the Institute received the Minister of Foreign Affairs’ Award for these publications. Whenever possible, this history was written by or in cooperation with participants in relevant diplomatic negotiations of the time.

The volumes covering the period from 1894 to 1992 were written by Dr. Kajima himself and were translated into English (The Diplomacy of Japan I-III) and into German (Geschichte der Japanischen Aussenbeziehungen I-III).
