The hoko (pao-chia in Chinese) system, a unique institution of control in imperial Japan, was of vital importance to the consolidation of Japanese rule in Taiwan, 1895-1945. It was basically an institution of control which enabled the colonial government to secure control over the island. After the turn of the century, the system developed into an informal organization of local government; it was on this level of local administration that office-holders were preponderantly Taiwanese.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The hoko (pao-chia in Chinese) system, a unique institution of control in imperial Japan, was of vital importance to the consolidation of Japanese rule in Taiwan, 1895-1945. It was basically an institution of control which enabled the colonial government to secure control over the island. After the turn of the century, the system developed into an informal organization of local government; it was on this level of local administration that office-holders were preponderantly Taiwanese.
520 $a Without purporting to be a comprehensive analysis of the hoko system, this study stresses the functional organization, developmental structure, and operational mobilization of this system under the Japanese. I started this study by looking at the system as a political institution. By political institution, I mean that the hoko system was in essence a political mechanism for social control. It had a unique structure and organization. From a control system in the employ of the police, it evolved during peacetime into an administrative base for local governments. It was further used, after 1932, as a vehicle for Japan's wartime mobilization.
520 $a I conclude, however, that the hoko system should be treated not only as a political institution, but also as a social organization. As a social organization, the hoko functioned largely within a moral society; the organization relied heavily on the mediating role of a local elite, which shared a set of values based on acknowledged status and established trust with the rest of society. As such, the system worked less for social reform than for social control and mobilization.
520 $a This study is an attempt to provide a basis for future examinations and comparisons of Chinese pao-chia system. In a synchronic approach, I would argue that the hoko system, though conceived as a continuation of a historical reality, generated significant changes by its very implemention. The "success story" of this system under the Japanese was made possible by a lucky convergence of historical factors. Its experience may not have been repeated elsewhere, because of the unique timing of implementation, the nature of colonial rule, and the manageability of scale.
