Inhaltsangabe

Historical surveys of postwar Japan are usually established on the grounds that the era is already over, interpreting "postwar" to be the years directly proceeding World War II. However, the contributors to this book take a unique approach to the concept of the postwar period and treat it as a network of historical time periods from the contemporary period, connecting these time capsules to the war to which they are inextricably linked. The book also takes a very interdisciplinary approach to examining post-war Japan and includes chapters centred around subjects as diverse as politics, poetry, philosophy, economics and art which serve to fill the blanks in the collective cultural memory that historical narratives leave behind. As such Japan's Post-War will appeal to students and scholars of Japanese Studies and Modern Japanese History as well as historians studying the world after 1945.
