ISBN10: 0198202601, ISBN13: 9780198202608, [publisher: Oxford University Press, Oxford] Softcover Paperback. The Pacific War was the most traumatic experience for Japan in modern times. This book examines the politics and culture of Japan during this period: the establishment of the wartime regime, its character and limitations; the actions and reactions of the emperor, the bureaucrats, and the politicians; the deposing of the Prime Minister in the middle of the war; political developments under his successors; the role of the press; the behaviour of intellectuals; andprevailing attitudes towards the West. Ben-Ami Shillony argues that the wartime regime of Japan, repressive as it was, was very different from contemporary totalitarian states. Thepolitical values of the Japanese were part of a wider cultural milieu, in which traditional concepts had already been affected by contact with Western civilization. This analysis of the politics and culture of Japan during the period of the Second World War argues that the wartime regime, repressive as it was, was very different from contemporary totalitarian states.
