In this first social and cultural history of Japan's construction of Manchuria, Louise Young offers an incisive examination of the nature of Japanese imperialism. Focusing on the domestic impact of Japan's activities in Northeast China between 1931 and 1945, Young considers "metropolitan effects" of empire building: how people at home imagined and experienced the empire they called Manchukuo. Contrary to the conventional assumption that a few army officers and bureaucrats were responsible for Japan's overseas expansion, Young finds that a variety of organizations helped to mobilize popular support for Manchukuo--the mass media, the academy, chambers of commerce, women's organizations, youth groups, and agricultural cooperatives--leading to broad-based support among diverse groups of Japanese. As the empire was being built in China, Young shows, an imagined Manchukuo was emerging at home, constructed of visions of a defensive lifeline, a developing economy, and a settler's paradise.

丰富了我的对于历史的看法，其实历史特别多样和复杂不是历史教课书里的一句话和一个词就能概括的。日本在满洲的新殖民的政策和影响。日本人想象力比较丰富，经常把下体放在了上面了
评分The chapters on agrarian imperialism and the co-opting of Japanese social democrats were especially good, as was the bit on trading patterns.
评分花了一个月，中间断断续续，有几章看得比较快，总算把Louise Young这本讲述日占满洲（国）时期历史的巨作啃完了。关于满洲国历史的书看得还不多，所以暂时不清楚这是不是第一本提出“总动员帝国“（total empire）概念的书，但读完后也是被Young对历史的缜密的梳理以及对历史原因冷静的追问所折服。正如导语里介绍的，全书主要是从军事、经济及移民三个角度展开，而按照结尾处的总结，全书又是着眼于大众传媒、政治、财阀与军队、乌托邦帝国、国家对经济社会的干预以及政府机构对于帝国建设的动员等六部分展开。末尾，Young对现代性与日本帝国主义的关系也有浅尝辄止的论述。而对于这段历史的历史性，作者也补充了世界大恐慌和中国国内民族抵抗运动的背景。总结就是，一个渐进式的没有回头路的“总动员帝国”。
评分#一个包罗万象的母题，正如为何彼时彼刻发生了这样的事情，它的多个维度与原因，在读完之后只能发现自己陷入一种得象忘言的状态。盗用lcy老师的话说：“但是意识到这一切的时候，就发现所有人都在非常理智地朝着那条尽头是悬崖的死路一路狂飙。” 对“王道乐土”的期待或是承诺大概是这样吧www
评分讀了一半, Empire building comprehensively influenced the metropolis; Manchukuo is a product of Japan's modernization.
