During the Pacific War the Japanese government used a wide range of
methods to recruit workers for construction projects throughout the
occupied territories. Mistreatment of workers was a major
grievance, both in widely publicized cases such as the use of
prisoners of war and forced Asian labor to construct the
Thailand-Burma "Death" Railway, and in a very large number of
smaller projects. In this book an international group of
specialists on the Occupation period examine the labor needs and
the recruitment and use of workers (whether forced, military, or
otherwise) throughout the Japanese empire. This is the first study
to look at Japanese labor policies comparatively across all the
occupied territories of Asia during the war years. It also provides
a graphic context for examining Japanese colonialism and relations
between the Japanese and the people living in the various occupied
territories.
