Paine Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Charting the rise and fall of Japan, the model developing country of the nineteenth century, the overthrow of the traditional Asian balance of power, and enduring animosities, this is an essential guide for those interested in Asian and world history, comparative politics, international relations, security studies and Asian politics today. Publisher Description The Japanese experience of war from the late-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century presents a stunning example of the meteoric rise and shattering fall of a great power. As Japan modernized and became the one non-European great power, its leaders concluded that an empire on the Asian mainland required the containment of Russia. Japan won the First Sino-Japanese War (1894–5) and the Russo-Japanese War (1904–5) but became overextended in the Second Sino-Japanese War (1931–45), which escalated, with profound consequences, into World War II. A combination of incomplete institution building, an increasingly lethal international environment, a skewed balance between civil and military authority, and a misunderstanding of geopolitics explains these divergent outcomes. This analytical survey examines themes including the development of Japanese institutions, diversity of opinion within the government, domestic politics, Japanese foreign policy and China's anti-Japanese responses. It is an essential guide for those interested in history, politics and international relations. Details ISBN 1107011957 ISBN-13 9781107011953 Title The Japanese Empire Author S.C.M.
