A new look at democratization, women's rights, and the Cold War in Post- WWII US-Occupied JapanA new look at democratization, women's rights, and the Cold War in Post- WWII US-Occupied Japan

"The postwar history of Japan is just beginning to be written, and Pedagogy of Democracyexamines a formative period---the U.S. Occupation, 1945-52. Koikari examines the Occupation as a raced, gendered, and classed endeavor in the larger context of the Cold War. Her fresh perspective makes this a significant book for those interested in Japanese women's history and Japanese history in general."
