After the horrors of World War II in Asia - not least the
systematic appalling mistreatment of Allied prisoners-of-war by the
Japanese military - few would have predicted that Britain's
relationship with Japan would flourish into a booming partnership
of economic interdependence by the start of the twenty-first
century. This ambitious examination of Anglo-Japanese relations
over the course of the 20th century charts the fascinating history
of how both nations overcame many years of prejudice and bitter
conflict to form a bond fused by financial, political and military
cooperation. In the 1930s, many Japanese became convinced that
their exports were being kept out of India by British tariffs and
it was not until the 1980s that the British government fully
accepted the futility of any protectionist impulse and encouraged
Japanese companies to invest in Britain. Today, each country not
only assists the other economically but also no longer blames the
other for its own domestic problems. "Britain and Japan in the
Twentieth Century" elucidates how both nations have struggled to
achieve stability and harmony in their relations with each other in
the face of contrasting cultural identities.
