Historical surveys of postwar Japan are usually established on the
grounds that the era is already over, interpreting "postwar" to be
the years directly proceeding World War II. However, the
contributors to this book take a unique approach to the concept of
the postwar epoch and treat it as a network of historical time
frames from the modern period, and connect these time capsules to
the war to which they are inextricably linked. The books strength
is in its very interdisciplinary approach to examining postwar
Japan and as such it includes chapters centred on subjects as
diverse as politics, poetry, philosophy, economics and art which
serve to fill the blanks in the collective cultural memory that
historical narratives leave behind. Originally published in French,
this new translation offers the English speaking world important
access to a major work on Japan which has been greatly enriched by
the translator's great accuracy and knowledge of English, French
and Japanese language, history and culture. Japan's Postwar will
appeal to students and scholars of Japanese Studies and Modern
Japanese History as well as historians studying the world after
1945.
