HIEA 3172 - The Japanese Empire


This course is an exploration of Japan’s imperial project from roughly 1890-1945. We will start by developing a critical theoretical vocabulary with which we will then focus on three recent and important books on Japanese imperialism in East Asia. At the end of the semester we will also look briefly at anti-imperial and decolonization movements as well as the status of the category of ‘empire’ for analyzing the postwar period.
