Description

Grassroots Pacifism in Post-War Japan examines the pivotal role of ordinary citizens in shaping the post-World War 2 peace movement. This scholarly work focuses on two major groups - workers and housewives - whose activism drove fundamental change in Japanese society. Yamamoto's research demonstrates how the peace movement, intertwined with democratic, economic, and humanitarian initiatives, helped dismantle feudal structures and modernise both the political process and the outlook of everyday Japanese people. Drawing on extensive primary sources, this book reveals how grassroots activism transformed individual attitudes and national consciousness during Japan's critical reconstruction period. Published by Routledge as part of The University of Sheffield Japanese Studies Series, this academic study offers fresh insights into how popular movements shaped post-war Japan's trajectory toward democracy and social progress.
