Post-war Japan as a Sea Power : Imperial Legacy, Wartime Experience and the Making of a Navy, Paperback / softback Book

Post-war Japan as a Sea Power : Imperial Legacy, Wartime Experience and the Making of a Navy Paperback / softback

Part of the Bloomsbury Studies in Military History series

Paperback / softback

Description

In Post-war Japan as a Sea Power, Alessio Patalano incorporates new, exclusive source material to develop an innovative approach to the study of post-war Japan as a military power.

This archival-based history of Asia's most advanced navy, the Japanese Maritime Self-Defence Force (JMSDF), looks beyond the traditional perspective of viewing the modern Japanese military in light of the country's alliance with the US.

The book places the institution in a historical context, analysing its imperial legacy and the role of Japan's shattering defeat in WWII in the post-war emergence of Japan as East Asia’s ‘sea power’.
