Description

Explore the transformation of a nation through the lens of social activism. Grassroots Pacifism in Post-War Japan provides a detailed look at the peace movements that shaped modern Japanese society. This scholarly work examines how workers and housewives led significant peace efforts following World War 2. Yamamoto examines how these movements worked alongside democratic, economic, and humanitarian causes. By analyzing these grassroots efforts, the book shows how they helped remove feudal remnants from Japanese society and individual attitudes. This process helped modernize the political landscape and the daily outlook of ordinary citizens. Part of the University of Sheffield/Routledge Japanese Studies Series, this book is a valuable resource for students and historians interested in the social and political evolution of Japan. It offers new material on the specific groups that drove change from the ground up during a period of massive national rebirth.
