Description
The 1930s was a tumultuous period in international affairs. The Great Depression had a profound impact on the world's major powers, contributing to conflicts such as the Spanish Civil War and the Second World War. This volume focuses exclusively on Japan during this time, exploring its domestic and foreign affairs between 1931 and 1941. It examines Japan within the context of changing approaches to global governance, the rise of the League of Nations, and the country's worldview in the 1930s. The editors argue that Japan experienced a national identity crisis during this period, which ultimately led to its role in the Second World War and the global order that followed. By examining Japan's tumultuous decade, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the complex factors that shaped the country's foreign policy and international relations during this critical period.
