The Limits of Westernization
Winner of the 2020 Baldridge Prize The rise of East Asia from the ashes of World War II in the late twentieth century has led to searching questions about the role the region will play in the world. The possibility that China will overtake the United States as a super power suggests the twenty-first century could become an Asian century. Given the dynamism of a new Asia, this study provides a crucial analysis of the origins and development of mod…
Jessamyn R. Abel. The International Minimum
Many questions remain about mid-twentieth-century internationalism. What was the relationship between internationalism and national and imperial interests before World War II? What happened to internationalist thinking during the war? Finally, how did the system redevelop internationalist structures so quickly and effectively in the postwar period? Jessamyn R. Abel’s The International Minimum: Creativity and Contradiction in Japan’s Global Engage…
Sarah Ellen Graham. Culture and Propaganda
We live in an age when internationalism has become a tainted word. It is equated with a soft approach to a dangerous world, a world that harbors disease, economic catastrophe, and terrorism. But there was a time in American history when internationalism promised a new world of cooperation and mutual understanding. Sarah Ellen Graham’s Culture and Propaganda: The Progressive Origins of American Public Diplomacy, 1936–1953 describes with clear anal…

An Intellectual ‘Great Game’
This essay studies the Japanese model and the origins of modernity in East Asia and the United States. Japanese innovations in the 1870s to 1890s impacted Chinese attempts at modernization in the initial decades of the 20 th Century. This resulted in a strong connection between modern thinking and the rise of civic nationalism in East Asia and the United States. Asian intellectuals picked the most useful parts of Confucianism and combined them wi…
East Is West and West Is East
The study of modernity has taken the history profession by storm. With the June 2011 issue of the American Historical Review devoted to it and prizewinning books focused on it, the modern condition, historians have decided, is worthy of extended study. East Is West and West Is East is ostensibly about gender and race issues in the interwar period, but the intrigue of the book is Karen Kuo's insights into the development of American modernity. She…

Hawaii at the Crossroads of the U.S. and Japan before the Pacific War
Introduction
When famous American philosopher John Dewey visited China in 1919, more than twenty years before the Pacific War, he saw the seeds of war in the Pacific being sown. But in the interests of truth it must be recorded that every resident of China, Chinese or American, with whom I have talked in the last four weeks has volunteered the belief that all the seeds of a future great war are now deeply implanted in China. 1 China and Japan were increasingl…

The Imperialist Imaginary
In recent decades, the cultural turn in history has produced the probing ideas of Edward Said and Michel Foucault, among others. Few studies, however, have used the insights of the Frankfurt School, a group of neo-Marxist scholars in prewar Germany who fused cultural analysis to the Marxist focus on economic matters. John R. Eperjesi attempts this in The Imperialist Imaginary, using Marxist insights along with many others to inform his argument a…
