Modern Japan
‘
Elise Tipton’s account of modern Japan is innovative, accessible and extremely useful.
With her interest in Japan’s minorities, her concern with developments since World
War 2, and her sensitivity to contentious scholarly issues, she has managed to break
new ground without ignoring any of the old, and certainly without sacrificing accuracy,
coherence or readability.’
Professor Harold Bolitho,
Edwin O.Reischauer Institute of Japanese Studies,
Harvard
University
‘Elise Tipton has produced a lively and compelling synthesis, full of human interest
and interpretative insight, of modern Japanese social and political history down to
recent times. Her narrative of what Japan’s modern trajectory has meant for women
and minorities whose experience has been too-long neglected is especially unforgettable.
This is an excellent book. I recommend it wholeheartedly.’
Stephen S.Large,
Reader in Modern Japanese History,
University of Cambridge
This comprehensive textbook provides a concise and fascinating introduction to the
social, cultural and political history of modern Japan. Ranging from the Tokugawa
period to the present day,
Modern Japan
charts the country’s evolution into a
modernized, economic and political world power.
The book widens the traditional approach to Japanese history to include social as
well as political factors in the country’s growth. Elise Tipton examines social groups
and developments that have previously been neglected, such as gender issues, ethnic
minorities, labour conditions, popular culture and daily life. Through this charting
of a complex web of social and political interaction, her book represents a unique
picture of the diversity of modern Japan and its people.
Highly accessible, this completely up-to-date textbook is an essential resource for
students, teachers and scholars of Japanese Studies, History and Politics.
