【Course Objectives】

This class will explore issues related to postwar Japanese history. Students will deepen their understandings of postwar Japan through historical analyses of themes ranging from diplomacy to mass culture. Students will hone their critical reading and writing skills. They will also expand their ability to recognize connections across thematic boundaries and between past and present.

【Course Contents】

We will be exploring the following questions among others. Why and how were the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and with what consequences? How were memories of the atomic bombings reconfigured after the Lucky Dragon Incident, and how did this affect the introduction of nuclear energy into Japan? How does the notion of “postwar” differ in Okinawa and mainland Japan? What is at stake in the recent controversies over the “comfort women” issue?
