In a departure from standard histories of Japan, this book shows how debates over the place of colonized lands reshaped the social and spatial imaginary of the modern Japanese nation and how, in turn, this sociospatial imaginary affected the ways in which colonial difference was conceptualized and enacted. In so doing, it illuminates how ideas of place became central to the production of new forms of colonial hierarchy as empires around the globe transitioned from an era of territorial acquisition to one of territorial maintenance"--Provided by publisher.TourismPolitical aspectsJapan20th centuryTourismJapanHistory20th centuryTaiwanDescription and travelManchuria (China)Description and travelKoreaDescription and travelJapanColoniesDescription and travel1950s.19th century.20th century.boundaries.colonial.colonialism.colonized lands.colonized.contemporary.empire.global.japanese history.japanese imperialism.japanese tourism.japanese travel.japanese.korea.manchuria.modern world.post colonial.social studies.speaking japanese.taiwan.territorial maintenance.territorial.territory.tourism.tourist.TourismPolitical aspectsTourismHistory306.4/819089956051McDonald Kate1981-985932MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK996333147003316Placing empire2253510UNISA
