Akira iriye, Honorary Professor of History Department of Harvard University, interprets the history of World War II.
Analyzing the Japan-US War from a cultural perspective.
Power and Culture challenges the traditional assumptions about the Pacific War. By paying attention to the interaction between culture and international relations, Ru Zhaojiang, a historian specializing in Japanese-American affairs, made a shocking reappraisal of the true meaning of Japanese-American strategy in the Pacific War. Akira iriye viewed the Japan-US war from the cultural perspective of the two countries, and thought that the war was more like a yearning for the international order than a ruthless pursuit of power.
Akira iriye convincingly proved that during the whole war, many Japanese politicians shared Wilson's vision of international cooperation with their American counterparts. As the war drew to a close, these Japanese politicians began to plan to establish a framework for world cooperation with views very similar to those of the United States. In fact, as Kim showed, only when the political ideals of both sides are deeply integrated can we understand the success of post-war Japan-US relations.
Kim drew an independent conclusion from the original research through Japanese official archives and declassified documents in the United States, which provided a brand-new perspective for judging international politics and future trends.

Editor's recommendation
1. The masterpiece of Harvard's historical authority. Akira iriye, emeritus professor of history at Harvard University, specializes in the history of Japan-US relations. He is a rare Japanese scholar and once served as the president of the American Historical Association.
Since the 1960s, akira iriye has studied Japanese and American affairs for more than half a century. With dual cultural genes, he personally experienced the cultural similarities and differences between the United States and Japan. Power and Culture not only analyzes the history of World War II in the United States and Japan, but also makes a keen observation on the cultures of the two countries.
2. Double warp. Power and Culture is not only a masterpiece in the study of the history of World War II, but also a classic reference case in the study of international relations.
Scholars of Harvard history have established a deep friendship with the White House (Kennedy once specialized in history and politics at Harvard University and wrote the best-selling book "Munich's appeasement policy"), and akira iriye's works are quite influential in Washington and American policy think tanks. Power and culture are the core embodiment of Iliyezhao's cultural exchange and international social thought.
3. Unique angle. This paper creatively interprets the military conflict and power struggle between the United States and Japan through cultural cross-section.
Akira iriye put forward the key setting in Power and Culture: participants in international affairs can be regarded as both power bodies and cultural bodies, and international relations are the relationship between international power and international culture. The boundaries of a country are not only defined by geographical factors, but also judged by cultural mechanisms. In this sense, a country is also a cultural entity. Kim used this perspective to study the US-Japan Pacific War, which reflected his profound understanding of the interaction mechanism between power and culture.
4. The narrative is clear and the story is strong. Power and Culture is not only a historical classic, but also a historical reading suitable for all ages to understand World War II and American and Japanese culture.
Although Iliyemin doesn't think Power and Culture is a history describing the conflict between the United States and Japan in World War II, a comprehensive and multi-level long-term study has enabled Iliyemin to have a good grasp of various documents, events and genealogy. The ups and downs of the US-Japan Pacific War are vivid and clear in akira iriye's works.
5. get honor. Power and Culture was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in History and was listed as a classic of Harvard history.
When writing Power and Culture, akira iriye and his research project on US-Japan relations were funded by the Guggenheim Foundation, the Henry Luce Foundation, the Department of Social Studies of the University of Chicago and the Far East Research Center. Robert Dallek, the author of The Kennedy Biography, believes that akira Ilier initiated a new situation of international conflict reconciliation.
6. It is closely related to readers in China.
The history of the Pacific War involves the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression in China and is closely related to the fate of the people of China. Understanding the history of the Pacific War will help us to reflect on history, base ourselves on the present and look forward to the future.
Praise and recommend
The Pulitzer Prize for History nominated Harvard Historical Classics.
Representative of akira iriye, former president of American Historical Association.
"This book aims to explore the significance of the Asia-Pacific War from the perspective of1941-kloc-0/945, the two major belligerents in the Asia-Pacific War, Japan and the United States. This structure of paying equal attention to both countries makes this monograph different from the General History of the Asia-Pacific War, which describes all the battles and policies of the warring sides, and it is also different from a book that only studies the background of one country ... My main purpose is not to write a history of the Asian war, but to write this war as a catalytic event according to the nature of modern international relations that can be discussed in this war. " -akira iriye, Honorary Professor of History Department of Harvard University.
"An amazing subversive view ... What we get from akira iriye's book is not the traditional picture that Japan and the United States are caught in irreconcilable conflicts, but the picture that the two sides who are enemies of each other move towards a feasible reconciliation along a compatible route." -Robert Dallek, the author and historian of The Kennedy Biography.
