Description

This scholarly examination of racial discourse in Japan challenges the long-held assumption of cultural and racial homogeneity that has dominated post-war Japanese political discourse and academic discourse. Michael Weiner provides a comprehensive analysis of how racial concepts have been articulated and re-articulated throughout the past century, situating this discussion against the background of labour migration from colonial territories. The work deconstructs the myth of a unified Japanese race, moving beyond simplistic interpretations to explore the complex relationship between racial ideology and imperial expansion. By examining both the causes and consequences of colonial migration patterns, this book offers historians and students of East Asian studies a nuanced understanding of how Japan constructed national identity through racial frameworks. The text forms part of the respected University of Sheffield and Routledge Japanese Studies Series, providing academic rigour and peer-reviewed analysis for those investigating the intersection of race, nation, and colonialism in modern Japanese history.
