Abstract

This conference paper discusses the role of Japanese Methodist pastor Tanimoto Kiyoshi in the formation of the International World Peace Day Movement (IWPDM) and the operations of the Hiroshima Peace Center (HPC). Both organizations were part of a large peace movement that was deeply influenced by the U.S. atomic bombings of Hiroshima, Japan and Nagasaki, Japan during World War II. The author is also largely concerned with the transnational nature of the IWPDM and HPC.
