Lisa Yoneyama. Cold War Ruins
Anyone with doubts about the innate conservatism of history as a discipline will find them put to rest upon reading books such as Lisa Yoneyama’s Cold War Ruins: Transpacific Critique of American Injustice and Japanese War Crimes, a study focused on justice denied for victims of war crimes, particularly of Japanese war crimes during the Asia-Pacific War. Most historians are sympathetic to this cause, but Yoneyama’s critique of denied justice goes…

Gold Wars in the Cold War
It is hard not to like a study of the usually dry subject of finance which opens with an account of the importance of Pussy Galore’s help to James Bond as he saved Fort Knox from the sinister Red Chinese and Goldfinger. Francis Gavin’s book, the product of impressive research in American governmental archives, is a timely reminder of an axiom that American presidents from Eisenhower to Johnson never forgot: economic strength was the foundation of…

The Origins of the Second World War in Asia and the Pacific
Scholars studying the origins of the Second World War in Asia are almost universally agreed on two points. A new synthesis is required to cover new work, especially new work for players besides the United States and Japan. For this very reason, a more satisfactory name for the conflict would be in order, since “Pacific War” seems inadequate. Unfortunately, this agreement exists despite international efforts at scholarly cooperation and exchange s…

The Challenge of Japan before World War II and after
The Incomplete Alliance
At first glance, one might think that these three recent books on American-Japanese relations have little in common. Kyoko Inoue's MacArthur's Japanese Constitution is, as its subtitle indicates, A Linguistic and Cultural Study that refers only infrequently to the history of either country. Richard B. Finn's Winners in Peace surveys the span of the occupation era, from General Douglas MacArthur's imperious arrival after surrender to the signing o…
Forging the Military-Industrial Complex
The Japanese Question
Feature Review
In his 1989 Stuart L. Bernath Memorial Lecture, Stephen G. Rabe urged historians of inter-American relations either to attempt a synthesis or to produce a new general interpretation for the field. Doing so, he said, would entail looking at the impact of connections across borders, that is, examining the socioeconomic, along with the political, milieu within which the United States has sought to exert predominant influence. Scholars, Rabe conclude…
