This book offers a radical reinterpretation of postwar Japan's
policies towards immigrants and foreign residents. Drawing on a
wealth of historical material, Tessa Morris-Suzuki shows how the
Cold War played a decisive role in shaping Japan's migration
controls. She explores the little-known world of the thousands of
Korean 'boat people' who entered Japan in the immediate postwar
period, focuses attention on the US military service people and
their families and employees, and also takes readers behind the
walls of Japan's notorious Omura migrant detention centre, and into
the lives of Koreans who opted to leave Japan in search of a better
future in communist North Korea. This book offers a fascinating
contrast to traditional images of postwar Japan and sheds light on
the origins and the dilemmas of migration policy in twenty-first
century Japan.
