内容説明

This book chronicles the American Occupation of Japan, an episode that profoundly shaped the postwar world. Richard B. Finn, who participated in the Occupation as a young naval officer and diplomat, tells the full story of the activities from 1945 to 1952. He focuses on the two main actors, General Douglas MacArthur and Japanese Prime Minister Shigery Yoshida and details the era's major events, programmes and personalities, both American and Japanese. The author draws on an impressive range of sources in describing the war crimes trials, constitutional reforms and American efforts to rebuild Japan. And he discusses the work of George Kennan in making political stability and economic recovery the top goals of the United States, a critical issue at the onset of the Cold War.

内容説明

Singular for its breadth and balance, Winners in Peace chronicles the American Occupation of Japan, an episode that profoundly shaped the postwar world. Richard B. Finn, who participated in the Occupation as a young naval officer and diplomat, tells the full story of the activities from 1945 to 1952. He focuses on the two main actors, General Douglas MacArthur and Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Yoshida, and details the era's major events, programs, and personalities, both American and Japanese. Finn draws on an impressive range of sources American, Japanese, British, and Australian including interviews with nearly one hundred participants in the Occupation. He describes the war crimes trials, constitutional reforms, and American efforts to rebuild Japan. The work of George Kennan in making political stability and economic recovery the top goals of the United States became critical in the face of the developing Cold War. Winners in Peace will aid our understanding of Japan today its economic growth, its style of government, and the strong pacifist spirit of its people.
