Ralph Smith was a highly respected historian who, at the time of
his death in December 2000, had nearly completed a manuscript
chronicling changes in the East Asia region since 1943. This
fascinating work, completed and edited by Chad Mitcham, one of
Ralph Smiths former students, himself a specialist and established
author in this field, draws together the product of Professor
Smiths research at archives in Britain, France, Japan and the
United States, extensive reading and international travel from 1966
to 2000. The book also incorporates a distillation of ideas and
themes explored in his earlier papers, articles and books,
including Ralph Smith's pioneering three volume work, "An
International History of the" "Vietnam War," It shows how both
Ralph Smiths thinking about the future course of the region and the
broader context of regional prospects radically changed throughout
this turbulent time.
As Ralph Smiths last major research project, carried out from 1997
to 2000, the book has evolved from his 1997 paper Visions of the
Future: East Asia in 1943 and 1993, delivered in the Huang Hsing
Foundation Distinguished Lecture at the Asian Studies Centre, St
Antonys College, Oxford. It is a vital contribution to post-war
Asian history.
