This book explores the historical writings of postwar Japanese
Marxists - who were, and who continue to be, surprisingly numerous
in the Japanese academic world. It shows how they developed in
their historical writing ideas of 'radical nationalism', which
accepted presupposed ideas of Japan's 'ethnic homogeneity', but
which they saw as a 'revolutionary subject', creating a sphere of
radical political action against the state, the American Occupation
and global capital. It compares this approach in both prewar and
postwar Marxist historiography, showing that in the postwar period
ideas were more elaborate, and put much more emphasis on national
education and social mobilization. It also shows how these early
postwar discourses have made their way into contemporary ethnic
nationalism and revisionism in Japan today. The book's rich and
interesting analysis will appeal not just to historians of Japan,
but also to those interested in nationalism and Marxism more
generally.
