This paper examines the significance of the Perry Centennial festival of 1953, the 100-year anniversary of the United States’ opening Okinawa of 1853. The U.S. government regarded the Centennial as an excellent opportunity to promote American democracy in Postwar Okinawa, particularly at the moment when Soviet pressure in Asia increased. In order to prevent Communist aggression and gain Okinawan people’s understanding on U.S. policy in East Asia, the U.S. used the Perry Centennial to emphasize the mutual unity and security with Okinawa. The U.S. military government in Okinawa sought to present the drama of Commodore Matthew C. Perry’s diplomacy and the success of his historic naval expedition to underscore the world leadership of the United States in 1953. The article examines such America’s cultural diplomacy toward Okinawa, and describes how the Perry Centennial of 1953 helped shape the public opinion on U.S. policy in Cold War in Okinawa.
Abstract
This paper examines the significance of the Perry Centennial festival of 1953, the 100-year anniversary of the United States’ opening Okinawa of 1853. The U.S. government regarded the Centennial as an excellent opportunity to promote American democracy in Postwar Okinawa, particularly at the moment when Soviet pressure in Asia increased. In order to prevent Communist aggression and gain Okinawan people’s understanding on U.S. policy in East Asia, the U.S. used the Perry Centennial to emphasize the mutual unity and security with Okinawa. The U.S. military government in Okinawa sought to present the drama of Commodore Matthew C. Perry’s diplomacy and the success of his historic naval expedition to underscore the world leadership of the United States in 1953. The article examines such America’s cultural diplomacy toward Okinawa, and describes how the Perry Centennial of 1953 helped shape the public opinion on U.S. policy in Cold War in Okinawa.
