일제의 식민지 지배전략과 神社 - 특히 지리학적 관점에서 -

Abstract

Since the colonial rule of Japan, the policy of Shinto Shrine of Japan had been promoted in two ways as a creation of a new Shinto Shrine and an institutionalization of the existing Shinto Shrine. New Shinto Shrine was built mainly for the visual landscape for the dignity of a city, the worship of king and foreign invision of Japan and the place of a Ideology education for the colonial rule and militarism and the existing Shinto Shrine had been transformed into the appearance matching with the State Shinto(国家神道) and for worship dedicated to the ancestral spirits of imperial family. Accordingly, early in the Korean occupation by Japan, the construction of Chosun Shinto Shrine(朝鮮神宮) in Korea further strengthened the ruling ideology in colony, and Buyeo Shinto Shrine(扶餘神宮) as a symbol of the Integration of Japan and Korea(內鮮一體), which was built in late 1930s created a foundation of strategic domination by networking all of the Shinto Shrines in Korea through planning the construction site for Shinto Shrine. In particular, it is noteworthy that the spatial expansion process of these Shinto Shrines matched the ruling strategy of Japan in connection with the railways in Korea. While the railways contributed to the physical network connecting the coasts and in lands for effective colonial rule, the Shinto Shrine formed a network tool for ideological establishment.
