In parallel case studies--of Japanese Americans mobilized to serve in the United States Army and of Koreans recruited or drafted into the Japanese military--T. Fujitani examines the U.S. and Japanese empires as they struggled to manage racialized populations while waging total war. Fujitani probes governmental policies and analyzes representations of these soldiers--on film, in literature, and in archival documents--to reveal how characteristics of racism, nationalism, capitalism, gender politics, and the family changed on both sides. He demonstrates that the United States and Japan became increasingly alike over the course of the war, perhaps most tellingly in their common attempts to disavow racism even as they reproduced it in new ways and forms"--Provided by publisher.Asia Pacific modern ;7.World War, 1939-1945Participation, Japanese AmericanWorld War, 1939-1945Participation, KoreanWorld War, 1939-1945Social aspectsUnited StatesWorld War, 1939-1945Social aspectsJapanNationalismUnited StatesHistory20th centuryNationalismJapanHistory20th centuryRacismUnited StatesHistory20th centuryRacismJapanHistory20th centuryImperialismJapanHistory20th centuryImperialismUnited StatesHistory20th centuryElectronic books.World War, 1939-1945Participation, Japanese American.World War, 1939-1945Participation, Korean.World War, 1939-1945Social aspectsWorld War, 1939-1945Social aspectsNationalismHistoryNationalismHistoryRacismHistoryRacismHistoryImperialismHistoryImperialismHistory940.53089/956073Fujitani Takashi1047658MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457914203321Race for empire2475372UNINA
