In this first social and cultural history of Japan's construction of Manchuria, Louise Young offers an incisive examination of the nature of Japanese imperialism. Focusing on the domestic impact of Japan's activities in Northeast China between 1931 and 1945, Young considers "metropolitan effects" of empire building: how people at home imagined and experienced the empire they called Manchukuo. Contrary to the conventional assumption that a few army officers and bureaucrats were responsible for Japan's overseas expansion, Young finds that a variety of organizations helped to mobilize popular support for Manchukuo--the mass media, the academy, chambers of commerce, women's organizations, youth groups, and agricultural cooperatives--leading to broad-based support among diverse groups of Japanese. As the empire was being built in China, Young shows, an imagined Manchukuo was emerging at home, constructed of visions of a defensive lifeline, a developing economy, and a settler's paradise.

The chapters on agrarian imperialism and the co-opting of Japanese social democrats were especially good, as was the bit on trading patterns.

评分Louise Young 是个大牛人。。
评分#一个包罗万象的母题，正如为何彼时彼刻发生了这样的事情，它的多个维度与原因，在读完之后只能发现自己陷入一种得象忘言的状态。盗用lcy老师的话说：“但是意识到这一切的时候，就发现所有人都在非常理智地朝着那条尽头是悬崖的死路一路狂飙。” 对“王道乐土”的期待或是承诺大概是这样吧www
