This volume presents the reader with thirty-one short chapters that
capture an exciting new moment in the study of the Meiji
Restoration. The chapters offer a kaleidoscope of approaches and
interpretations of the Restoration that showcase the strengths of
the most recent interpretative trends in history writing on Japan
while simultaneously offering new research pathways. On a scale
probably never before seen in the study of the Restoration outside
Japan, the short chapters in this volume reveal unique aspects of
the transformative event and process not previously explored in
previous research. They do this in three core ways: through
selecting and deploying different time frames in their historical
analysis; by creative experimentation with different spatial units
through which to ascertain historical experience; and by innovative
selection of unique and highly original topics for analysis. The
volume offers students and teachers of Japanese history, modern
history, and East Asian studies an important resource for coming to
grips with the multifaceted nature of Japan's nineteenth-century
transformation. The volume will also have broader appeal to
scholars working in fields such as early modern/modern world
history, global history, Asian modernities, gender studies,
economic history, and postcolonial studies.
