Sommario/riassunto

To understand the turnaround in Spain’s stance towards Japan during World War II, this book goes beyond mutual contacts and explains through images, representations, and racism why Madrid aimed at declaring war on Japan but not against the III Reich -as London ironically replied when it learned of Spain’s warmongering against one of the Axis members. Florentino Rodao is a Professor of Modern History at Complutense University of Madrid, Spain. He has two Ph. D’s (Complutense and the University of Tokyo) and has also taught in the
