Japan's Total Empire: Manchuria & Imperialism (1999) Louise Young PB Acceptable

University of California Press, 1999. Trade paperback of Japan's Total Empire: Manchuria and the Culture of Wartime Imperialism by Louise Young.

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.
