Japan and the League of Nations
Japan joined the League of Nations in 1920 as a charter member and one of four permanent members of the League Council. Until conflict arose between Japan and the organization over the 1931 Manchurian Incident, the League was a centerpiece of Japan's policy to maintain accommodation with the Western powers.

Schaller argues that the reconstruction of postwar Japan not only shaped the future of that country but the future of U.S. policy throughout postwar Asia, leading up to the controversial interventions in China, Korea, and Vietnam. The author shows how after the war, the United States sou…

Erected on Oura H ill in the foreign concession in Nagasaki, it memorialized twenty-six martyrs who in 1597 had faced crucifixion rather than deny their Christian faith. The new church was built under treaty rights whi…
