This book provides an interdisciplinary study about the migration
of approximately 9 million people who became end of empire migrants
in East Asia following the collapse of the Japanese Empire in 1945.
Through the collection of first-hand testimonies and examination of
four key themes, the book uncovers how the Japanese government’s
repatriation policy intersected with people’s experiences of end
of empire migration in East Asia. The first theme, repatriation as
historiography and discourse, examines how repatriation has been
studied, debated and represented in Japan since the end of the
Second World War. The second theme, finding home in the former
empire, reveals the diversity of experiences of the peoples of
former colonies as the borders ‘shifted under their feet’
through first-hand testimony. The third theme, government policy,
explores the changing Japanese government policy from the 1950s to
the 1970s. The fourth theme, integration after repatriation,
reveals how Japanese former colonial residents integrated into
Japanese society following repatriation. Presenting the collective
research of 14 international authors, this book will be of interest
for researchers of East Asian history, modern Japanese history,
migration studies, postcolonial studies, Japanese studies, Korean
studies, post-war international relations and Cold War history.
