• Sommario/riassunto: Consisting of twenty-three essays, The Decade of the Great War examines the 1910's as a pivotal period with deep connections both to the imperialist heyday of the 1880's‒1890's, and to the vibrant global politics, commercial expansion, and social movements of the 1920's. It critically reviews Japan’s diplomatic and military relations, offering both a reexamination of some of the issues addressed in the earlier scholarship on the war years and a needed sense of the breadth of Japan’s new international relations. It highlights the importance of transnational approaches to the study of Japan’s domestic, intra-imperial, and foreign affairs. Together, the essays in this volume provide a wide-range of perspectives on relations within Asia and between Asian, European, and North American states.
