日本基督教会は1904年、大韓帝国で植民活動をしていた日本人を対象に伝道を開始した。1915年朝鮮中会を建設し、1941年日本基督教団朝鮮教区として他の在朝鮮日本人教会と合同するまで16前後の教会、約2,000人の信徒を有した。一部の例外を除いて朝鮮人に対する伝道や隣人愛の活動はできず、主に植民者の教会としての限界を乗り越えることはできなかった。敗戦後、日本人キリスト者は引き揚げたが、残した礼拝堂などは韓国教会の再建の土台の一部にもなった。 / Church of Christ in Japan began their ministry among the Japanese colonzer at Korea in 1904. They could build up Chosen Presbytery in 1915 and continue their work until 1941, when were united to United Church of Christ in Japan Chosen Parish. They had about 16 churches and 2000 members. With a few exceptions, they could not either evangelize among the Koreans or work as neighbors of Koreans. They could not be more than church of colonizers in most cases. After the war they had to retreat from liberated Korea but the chapels that they had left could become the ground for rebuilding or starting some Korean churches. / 博士(神学) / Doctor of Theology / 同志社大学 / Doshisha University

This thesis takes a fresh look at the legal practices observed at the Sŏnch’ŏn trial, the main trial of the Korean Conspiracy Case. On 28 June 1912, 132 suspects were brought forth on charges of alleged assassination of the first Governor-General of colonial Korea, Masatake Terauchi. It is argued that if the immediate local interests of the new administration invariably affected the entire case, what determined the nature of the suspects’ treatment before and during the trial was a set of formal and informal legal practices that were transported to the colony amidst legal reforms. By analysis the trial from an empire-wide perspective, this study looks at how specific legal practices from the metropole were exacerbated in Korea through legal loopholes and the agency of legal actors and how such informal and disavowed legal practices both defined the legal system of the colony and helped sustain the Japanese colonial venture.
