The Japanese And The War: Expectation, Perception, And The Shaping Of Memory (Asia Perspectives: History, Society, And Culture)

Japanese memories of World War II exert a powerful influence over the nation's society and culture. Michael Lucken explores how the war manifested in literature, art, film, funerary practices, and education reform, creating an idea of Japanese identity that still resonates from soap operas to the response to the Fukushima nuclear disaster.
