In examining the number of DEAs established between 1870 and 1943, it is clear that the greatest number were established in the early 1920s following the Paris peace conference. During this period, DEAs were set up in developing European and near East countries, many of which gained their independence after WWI. Until this point, Japan had hardly communicated with these countries, and DEAs were not yet necessary there. The trend in the establishment of DEAs during the 1920s is linked to the fact that Japan became a member of Five Great Powers by the Paris peace conference. Consequently, Japan had to develop diplomatic strategies for the postwar changes in the international landscape. One of these was to show a positive attitude, not only to the situations in Asia, but also those in Europe and near East. Thus, to make a basis appropriate as a member of Five Great Powers, the MOFA estab\ lished DEAs in the developing countries in Europe and near East.}, pages = {6.1--6.13}, title = {第一次世界大戦後における日本外交と在外公館}, volume = {8}, year = {2005} }
