Since the end of the Pacific War, Japan has, broadly speaking,
pursued two economic policies: a "democratization" policy laid down
by the Allied Powers, and subsequently a "de-democratization"
policy formulated and vigorously pursued by the independent
government. Yamamura here addresses himself to two central
questions: What were the objectives and results of each policy? And
why and how did the earlier one give way to the later? Yamamura
never loses sight of his main theme--the transformation of the
economic "democratization" policy of the Occupation period into the
growth policy pursued by the Japanese government thereafter. He is
concerned not so much to provide a comprehensive study of Japanese
economic policy as to examine selected facets of it--for example,
taxation policies, anti- and pro-monopoly legislation, the position
of the Zaibatsu, and the social costs of economic concentration. He
deals with topics that are hotly debated in Japan and elsewhere,
but his tone is never polemical, and his judgments are cool and
scholarly. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program,
which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek
out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach,
and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived
makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again
using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally
published in 1967.
