"Stylish and illuminating, Inventing Japan has the added virtue of being admirably concise. Students and general readers alike will find this grand overview of modern Japan's many identities engaging and provocative." --John W. Dower, author of Embracing Defeat: Japan in the Wake of World War II, winner of the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize
"In his characteristically penetrating manner, Ian Buruma delves into why modern Japan--for all its intellectual and artistic vitality--has not developed a more open, democratic, and cosmopolitan political order." --Sheldon Garon, professor of history and East Asian studies, Princeton University "Those familiar with Ian Buruma's impressive body of work on Japan will not be disappointed by Inventing Japan. This compelling narrative captures the excitement, triumph, and failure of the century in which Japan abandoned its traditional ways and entered into the modern world. Iconoclastic as always, Buruma offers fascinating insights into the nature of Japan's uneasy experiment with constitutional government, the impact of bureaucratic planning on economic growth, and the ties that closely bind the present with the past. Equally intriguing are his comparisons of Japan's development with those of China, Japan's ancient cultural mentor, and with Germany, its modern cultural mentor and another late-developing nation." --James L. McClain, professor of history, Brown University; author of Japan: A Modern HistoryThe author of Bad Elements and The Missionary and the Libertine traces the history of Japan from the country's nineteenth-century feudal isolation, to its rise to military power and defeat during World War II, to its rebirth as a global economic power and working democracy in the postwar era. Reprint.
