Contributors to this book provide an Asian women's history from the perspective of gender analysis, assessing Japanese imperial policy and propaganda in its colonies and occupied territories and particularly its impact on women.

Tackling topics including media, travel, migration, literature, and the perceptions of the empire by the colonized, the authors present an eclectic history, unified by the perspective of gender studies and the spatial and political lens of the Japanese Empire. They look at the lives of women in, Taiwan, Korea, Manchuria, Mainland China, Micronesia, and Okinawa, among others. These women were wives, mothers, writers, migrants, intellectuals and activists, and thus had a very broad range of views and experiences of Imperial Japan. Where women have tended in the past to be studied as objects of the imperial system, the contributors to this book study them as the subject of history, while also providing an outside-in perspective on the Japanese Empire by other Asians.

A vital new perspective for scholars of twentieth-century history of East Asian countries and regions.

Tatsuya Kageki is a research associate in the faculty of economics of Keio University. His research focused on developing the history of social thought in modern Japan and East Asia.

Jiajia Yang is an assistant professor in the Research Center for Japanese Language Education and Department of Japanese Language & Literature, College of Foreign Languages and Cultures at Xiamen University. She majors in modern Japanese literature, and comparative literature and culture of Japan and China.
