Abstract

Historians have extensively explored conflicts and reconciliation between labor and management, but have hardly considered how class hierarchy took shape and persisted. This article explores the birth of class hierarchy through the lens of the Tokyo Worker School. While education bureaucrats created this school as a training ground for skilled workers, the school's educators helped their students join white-collar positions and avoid the stigma against manual labor. By tracing this process, I explain how the aspirations of educators and students alike consolidated class hierarchy and explore why the collar line persisted despite the ascent of hitherto under-valued professions, such as engineering.

This is also the case in the history writing of engineering education in the other parts of the world. For instance, George S. Emmerson, in his global history of engineering education, did not explore class hierarchies although he was aware that “status” was at the center of “motives for upgrading the training of engineers,” and “remaining a working engineer in any medium-to-large American or British company is to limit one's salary and status aspirations.” see Emmerson, George S., Engineering Education: A Social History (New York: Crane, Russak & Company, Inc., 1973), 268–9Google Scholar.

According to this source, Tōdai engineers took 178 head technician positions out of the total 333 positions, while graduates of the higher school of engineering in Tokyo and Osaka claimed 26 in 1902. Engineers from Kyoto Imperial University took 12 head technician positions. In contrast, among the 147 graduates of the higher schools of engineering in Tokyo and Osaka, 121 were at the rank of assistant technician (gishu, sometimes called pejoratively gite). I am using the number of the higher school of engineering here, since the Tokyo Kōkō and the Osaka Higher School of Engineering just changed their names in 1901, one year before this survey was conducted. According to a 1937 survey, most graduates of higher schools of engineering started their careers as the assistant technician and commonly spent twenty years to get promoted to the rank of the head technician.
