Japanese Empire
This course examines the history of Japanese empire, the only non-western empire in modern history. In its heyday, it ruled over a territory spanning from Seoul to Taipei, from Sakhalin to Micronesia, occupying huge areas in both Asia and the Pacific. Its imperial expansion, colonial governance, wars, and postwar legacy not only transformed the political topography of the Asia-Pacific in the 20th century, but also shaped the present societies and international relations of the East Asian countries in substantially ways.
The class puts Japanese empire into the larger context of East Asian history, and discusses a series of key themes, such as colonialism, racism, wars, nationalism, and memory. It seeks to provide students both a general framework to understand the history of modern East Asia (China, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan in particular) and an analytical tool to think about empires.
Students will read both historical works and primary sources, such as novels, memoirs and comics, and a few historical films will be shown, too. Class requirement includes active discussion, short assignments and a final paper, through which students will learn and practice skills of critical reading, analyzing and historical writing.
TTH 10.00-1.10 pm
