Japan’s Occupation of Java in the Second World War: A Transnational History
Japan’s Occupation of Java in the Second World War draws upon written and oral Japanese, Indonesian, Dutch and English-language sources to narrate the Japanese occupation of Java as a transnational intersection between two complex Asian societies, placing this narrative in a larger wartime context of domestic, regional, and global crisis. Japan’s occupation of Java is here revealed in a radically new and nuanced light, as an ambiguous encounter r…

Grassroots Fascism: The War Experience of the Japanese People
This book profiles the Asia Pacific War (1937–1945)—the most important though least understood experience of Japan's modern history—through the lens of ordinary Japanese life. Moving deftly from the struggles of the home front to the occupied territories to the ravages of the front line, the book offers rare insights into popular experiences from the war's troubled beginnings through Japan's disastrous defeat in 1945 and the new beginning it hera…
Grassroots Fascism: The War Experience of the Japanese People
As a young historian researching prewar popular political movements in the early 1970s, Yoshimi Yoshiaki (b. 1946) became increasingly struck-and troubled-by the systematic inattention to popular experiences of the war period, along with the virtually universal silence on questions of popular war responsibility. Imbued with the progressive convictions of a scholarly generation that came of age amid the political struggles of the late 1960s, he wa…

The Perils of Co-Prosperity: Takeda Rintarō, Occupied Southeast Asia, and the Seductions of Postcolonial Empire
Pan-Asianism in Modern Japanese History: Colonialism, Regionalism, and Borders
Pan-Asianism is complicated stuff. Yet until recently, it has rarely been seen as such, either in or outside of Japan. As Roger H. Brown points out in his contribution to Pan-Asianism in Japanese History, ‘given the often glaring gap’ between Japanese claims of furthering Asian brotherhood and ‘the brutalities of militarist despotism that marked Japan's “Holy War” (seisen) to establish a New Order in East Asia, it is little surprising that histor…
