Focussing on American policy, and the Japanese response to collapse, he demonstrates how the mix of East and West in modern Japan derives from the period immediately after World War II. Alongside the familiar story of economic resurgence, Dower provides an account of the recreation of private life after years of regimentation and sacrifice.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45083488190615,"sku":"9780140285512","price":840.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780140285512.webp?v=1767635806","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/embracing-defeat-9780140285512","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
