Japan’s Colonization Of Korea : Discourse And Power

  • Japan's Colonization Of Korea : Discourse And Power

  • Attribution

    Alexis Dudden

  • Publication Details

    Book, University of Hawai’i Press, 2005

  • Links

  • Description

    Although the Japanese state aggrandizers’ reliance on this discourse did not create the imperial nation Japan would become, their fluent use of its terms inscribed Japan’s claims as legal practice within Japan and abroad. Dudden squares her examination of the legality of Japan’s imperialist designs by discussing the place of colonial policy studies in Japan at the time, demonstrating how this new discipline further created a common sense that Japan’s empire accorded to knowledgeable practice.
