The pacific war (1937-45) marked the most innovative period in the development of public welfare in Japan, comparable to the 1880s in Germany, the 1908-14 era in Britain, and the 1930s in the United States. Wartime welfare policy set precedents that shape many aspects of welfare provision in Japan to this day. It is a cruel paradox, but war, despite its immediate, catastrophic effects on human well-being, has played a major role in the evolution of the welfare state
