Description

Product Description This book investigates the wartime role of Emperor Hirohito and the transition of the Emperor System, a structure which had been in place for a large period of Japanese history, and one undergoing significant change due to a series of intense encounters with Western-style modernity since the Meiji period of the late nineteenth century. Specifically, it explores moments in three episodes of social reality that were part of the wartime experience of the Japanese people: namely, the initiation of the conflict, accomplishing an end to the war, and the transition to post-war society. Review "Overall Suzuki’s presentation is well organized, and he invokes a debater’s style by enumerating his points in careful detail. He also uses a journalistic style for Japanese names, using Western name order with the surname last."R. W. Purdy, The Historian, 2018, p.583 About the Author Takeshi Suzuki received his PhD in Communication Studies, Northwestern University, USA. He is a Professor in the School of Information and Communication at Meiji University, Japan, and a Visiting Scholar at the Centre for Film and Screen of the University of Cambridge, UK.
