This thesis examined policies toward Korean women of the Japanese Government-General of Korea during the period between 1942 and 1945 by studying the formation and activities of the Korean branch of the Japanese Women��s Society(���ձ��D�˕� ���r����, KBJWS) which the Japanese women's group organized on March 14th, 1942. KBJWS was chosen for this study for the following reason that the period during which KBJWS operated (1942��1945) followed the time when the conscription system was decided to be enforced afterwards, May 1942. During that period, policies of the Government-General toward Korean housewives were developed most vigorously. KBJWS worked as following the policies of the Government-General.
Firstly, the assimilation policy operated by KBJWS was not a complete unity of Korean women with Japanese women but was, in fact, a discrimination against Korean women. KBJWS made propaganda that Korean women could truly become Japanese women as long as they become ��militaristic mothers�� and ��Madam in the rear guard��(�|��D��) as producers just like Japanese women. However, in fact, Korean women were not treated equally as Japanese women but were exploited only as labor forces.
Secondly, the primary objective of KBJWS was to mobilize Korean housewives as labor forces, which was facilitated by opening nurseries and making labor patriotic squad(�ڄڈ���), agricultural driving squad(�r�I���M�). Its mobilization method was to secure ��Chong-hoe��(�), the smallest unit in the administration as its sphere of influence. Thereby KBJWS was able to mobilize patriotic units through ��Chong-hoe��(�).
Finally, KBJWS aimed to control the living of Korean women and delivery(����), which was conducted by nationwide campaigns. Also KBJWS nurtured leaders to oblige Korean women to follow Japanese lifestyles, which was considered to have made a significant influence on Korean women��s lives despite their resistance.
However, KBJWS was dissolved at the end of the war in June 1945 and then was incorporated into National Civilian Army(�����x���). This clearly reveals the change of the Government-General��s policy toward Korean women.
In conclusion, the significance of KBJWS is that it was a sole nationwide organization directed by Japanese women with an intention of mobilizing and controling the entire Korean women.
