Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more.Provincializing Empire explores the global history of Japanese expansion through a regional lens. It rethinks the nation-centered geography and chronology of empire by uncovering the pivotal role of expeditionary merchants from !2;mi (present-day Shiga Prefecture) and their modern successors. Tracing their lives from the early modern era, and writing them into the global histories of empire, diaspora, and capitalism, Jun Uchida offers an innovative analysis of expansion through a story previously untold: how the nation's provincials built on their traditions to create a transpacific diaspora that stretched from Seoul to Vancouver, while helping shape the modern world of transoceanic exchange. 410 $aAsia Pacific Modern 606 $aMerchants$zJapan$zShiga-ken$xHistory 606 $aHISTORY / Asia / Japan$2bisacsh 615 0$aMerchants$xHistory. 615 7$aHISTORY / Asia / Japan. 676 $a382.0952185 700 $aUchida$b Jun, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0761876 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 912 $a9910832992103321 996 $aAsia Pacific Modern.
