Description

Explore a different perspective on the transformation of Japan through this scholarly work from Routledge. While many history books focus on the rise of national power and the leaders who opened Japan to the West after centuries of isolation, this book looks at the experience of ordinary people. It examines how local areas and community politics helped shape the course of the nation. By looking beyond the dominant accounts of military and economic growth, readers can understand the role of local movements and individual experiences in the making of modern Japan. This book is an important resource for those studying world history and the social changes that define a nation's path to modernization.
