John W. Dower is the Elting E. Morison Professor of History at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He is a winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for War Without Mercy.
Drawing on a vast range of Japanese sources and illustrated with dozens of astonishing documentary photographs, Embracing Defeat is the fullest and most important history of the more than six years of American occupation, which affected every level of Japanese society, often in ways neither side could anticipate. Dower, whom Stephen E. Ambrose has called "America's foremost historian of the Second World War in the Pacific," gives us the rich and turbulent interplay between West and East, the victor and the vanquished, in a way never before attempted, from top-level manipulations concerning the fate of Emperor Hirohito to the hopes and fears of men and women in every walk of life. Already regarded as the benchmark in its field, Embracing Defeat is a work of colossal scholarship and history of the very first order.
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the 1999 National Book Award for Nonfiction, finalist for the Lionel Gelber Prize and the Kiriyama Pacific Rim Book Prize, Embracing Defeat is John W. Dower's brilliant examination of Japan in the immediate, shattering aftermath of World War II.
这是一部描写日本战后政治制度构造重建的一本好书,作者也因此获得普利策和费正清奖。作者阐述了日本战后政治制度的构造乃至经济模式,在很大程度上是日本战前体制和美国占领文化的结合。日本战后的政治清算不彻底,关键是由于占领军出于冷战政策或者政治占领稳定因素的考虑,...

評分都说历史是厚重的。初时的理解是,因为历史承载了太多的事中人和人中事,现世的人和事在历史的车辙下会被碾压,尘埃微粒而已。 读了《拥抱战败》,我似乎读动了这份“厚重”,因为他包含了太多的丑陋和不堪。这份“厚重”推不动,它需要各色人等来演绎统治阶层编写好的的历史剧...
評分一衣带水的邻邦,承继了中华文化却又独立发展的日本历史,对于留学东京的我总是有这挥之不去的魅力。说起日本历史,每个中国人都想起日本侵华战争对我们造成的伤害,我们应当去铭记那段历史,同时也应该了解当时及被美军单独占领以后的日本是怎样的状态。这本书在很多方面给了...
非常好的一本書,它展現瞭一個特殊曆史時期的日本全貌。
评分DS889 .D69 1999 "the Japanese national character was pendulum-like, capable of swinging from one extreme to another."
评分9-15章 關於天皇民主和東京審判的數個章節是全書菁華。對我來說不是那麼好讀,後麵要補充一些法政的參考書然後再二刷。
评分David說這書看完瞭好幾個晚上都睡不著 有的段落可能這輩子都不能想通瞭 (誰不是呢
评分John Dower是研究日本的一位大牛人
