Reviews
A thoughtful and wide-ranging discussion of war experience and, more importantly, memorialization. The translation is fluent and very approachable for a general audience. . . . [Lucken's] most convincing, forceful, and useful contribution to the field, and . . . an engaging and thought-provoking read., In this highly readable book, Michael Lucken combines an encyclopedic overview of Japan's diverse conflicts over the memory of WWII with a razor-sharp dissection of their historical origins. At the core of this, Lucken argues, lies the fateful interplay between wartime ideologies and Japan's American-brokered entry into the postwar world., This is an exceptional book and should be recommended to scholars in any field, even those with prior knowledge of twentieth-century Japan., Michael Lucken's The Japanese and the War provides, in the form of a wonderfully curated collection of insightful and instructive vignettes, both a comprehensive overview and an intimate portrayal of trans-war Japanese society. The work skillfully ties together the disparate fields of visual and material culture, the experience of all-out war, and the politics of war memory. Deftly translated, the book is a pleasure to read., Michael Lucken's book, made available from the French by Karen Grimwade's skillful translation, addresses the place of World War II in Japanese history and memory, and provides an important addition to the Anglophone scholarship on wartime and postwar Japan., Michael Lucken skillfully combines a cultural history of wartime Japan with an account of how narratives and memories of the conflict emerged during the occupation and beyond. For those seeking to understand the roots of Japan's "memory wars" and the "history issue" in Asia, this book is an excellent place to start.

Synopsis
Memories of World War II exert a powerful influence over Japan's culture and society. In The Japanese and the War , Michael Lucken details how World War II manifested in the literature, art, film, funerary practices, and education reform of the time. Concentrating on the years immediately before and after (1937 to 1952), Lucken explores the creation of an idea of Japanese identity that still resonates in everything from soap operas to the response to the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Lucken defines three distinct layers of Japan's memory of World War II: the population's expectations at the beginning, the trauma caused by conflict and defeat, and the politics of memory that arose after Japan lost to the Allied powers. Emphasizing Japanese-language sources, Lucken writes a narrative of the making of Japanese cultural memory that moves away from Western historical modes and perspectives. His approach also paints a new portrait of the U.S. occupation, while still maintaining a cultural focus. Lucken sets out to capture the many ways people engage with war, but particularly the full range of Japan's experiences, which, he argues, the Japanese state has yet to fully confront, leading to a range of tensions at home and abroad., Japanese memories of World War II exert a powerful influence over the nation's society and culture. Michael Lucken explores how the war manifested in literature, art, film, funerary practices, and education reform, creating an idea of Japanese identity that still resonates from soap operas to the response to the Fukushima nuclear disaster.
