By 1925 the process of Japan's transition to a modern
industrialised, westernised state was pretty much complete. Not
only had the imperial tradition been restored with the Meiji
Restoration in 1868, but some forms of democratic parliamentary
institutions had been set up. However, during the years that
followed, the so-called imperial democracy came under pressure as
the Japanese sought to impose tight control over not only their own
people but their neighbours as well. This impressive survey looks
at developments at home, Japan's aggressive foreign policy
particularly in China during the 1930s and 1940s, and her role in
the Second World War. Finally, the post-war reconstruction
orchestrated by the Americans is examined. The cut-off point is
1952 - the date when Allied Occupation formally came to an end and
Japan once again became independent.
