Foreword by Carol Gluck. In this landmark exploration, one of Japan's most widely-read historians looks back over the past 70 years of his country's history. Examining the momentous changes that occurred during Emperor Hirohito's long reign (1926-1989), Irokawa reveals how the changing role of the imperial system affects Japanese life today. With the death of Emperor Hirohito in 1989, the so-called Showa era in Japanese history came to an end. With access to documents and source material previously unavailable, the history of Showa--not just its triumphs, but its many failures as well--could be written.
