Abstract

At first, the railway was built mainly for military purposes by Japan. After the annexation by Japan, the Korean railway became a means of colonization for Japan but the railway also promoted modernization. As a new transportation medium, it influenced economic, cultural and social development. Until now, research identifying the properties of the railway in the Japanese colonial period has been insufficient. In particular, microscopic study of the influence of the railway on social change has been insufficient. In this study we investigated the properties of Japanese colonial period railway. This paper will help further to clarify the properties of the railway in the Japanese colonial period.

한반도에서 철도가 처음으로 개통된 후 철도는 주로 군사적 목적으로 이용되었다. 즉, 경인선, 경부선, 경의선이 건설되었으며, 한일합방이후에는 한반도에서 철도는 일본의 식민화에 따른 지배의 수단이 되었지만, 한편으로는 우리나라의 새로운 운송수단으로서 근대화를 촉진시키고, 조선의 경제, 문화, 사회의 발전에 적지 않은 영향을 미쳤다. 현재, 한국 철도사 연구 중에서 연구가 미진한 부문의 하나가 일제강점기에 있어서의 철도의 성격규명에 관한 연구이다. 특히 구체적인 철도의 영향력과 사회변화 등에 대한 미시적인 연구와 관료를 중심으로 한 철도정책과정에 대한 연구가 부족하여 철도의 성격에 대한 다양한 측면이 간과되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 일제강점기의 철도에 대한 성격규명을 정성적으로 살펴보고자 한다. 즉, 일제강점기 조선총독의 지휘를 받았던 철도국장 등 철도정책결정에 매우 중요한 위치를 차지하고 있는 철도관료의 분석을 통해 철도의 성격을 규명해보고자 하였으며, 대륙철도와의 연결과 국내산업개발 측면에서의 조선철도의 성격 등에 대하여 분석하였다. 본 연구를 통해 그 동안 일제강점기의 철도에 대한 성격을 보다 정확하게 파악하는 계기가 될 것으로 판단된다.
