Destruction and Rebirth: Japan's Showa Era (1926-1989)
About This Novel
Why did the Japanese choose war? After the war, what did they lose and what did they gain? Japan's Showa era was full of radical changes. The country moved step by step towards a wartime system before the war, established a national mobilization system during the war, suffered from hunger and poverty in the early postwar period, and then ushered in a miraculous economic revival. That was an era when Japan suffered setbacks and rose again. Based on the latest research results, Professor Takahisa Furukawa of Nihon University takes the broad perspective of politics, economy, diplomacy, and popular culture, and follows the time dimension of pre-war, wartime, and post-war, and uses a simple and easy-to-understand method to lead readers to easily overlook the historical panorama of the Showa era. The Showa era is an unfinished past, and its legacy remains influential today. This is a "definitive edition" by authoritative scholars that covers the turbulent 64 years of the Showa era.
