Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on changes within Japan at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century, comparing pre-and post-war eras. While Japan had been modernizing for years, the victory in the Sino-Japanese war of 1894-95 marked a major shift from traditional values towards a progressive national outlook. This book examines this transition, discussing Japanese culture, economics, government, and diplomacy under modernization and how Japan's rapid transformation shaped their aims and relations with other nations. The author presents arguments for Japan's readiness to move forward with the rest of the world, despite some Westerners' concerns over perceived social and developmental shortcomings.
