Abstract
Since Japan first began to industrialise in the mid-nineteenth century, more than one million people have emigrated to various countries throughout the world, including the United States, Central and South America and Australia. Government policies actively encouraged emigration especially before and shortly after World War Two because, despite rapid urbanisation, Japan could not afford to maintain its steadily increasing population. The Japanese government also set out to establish Japanese colonies in both Korea and China.
