Jon Halliday and Gavan McCormack argue with conviction that Japan's rapid industrial growth and overseas investment constituted a new form of imperialism, cloaked in the language of mutual benefit and regional cooperation. The authors detail the mechanisms of Japanese corporate dominance, trade policy, and political influence throughout Southeast Asia, unmasking the structural inequalities underpinning these relationships. Written with academic rigour yet accessible to a general readership, the book challenges the prevailing post-war narrative of Japan as a peaceful trading nation, instead illustrating a pattern of economic subjugation that echoes its wartime ideology of a Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888002707675,"sku":"2026200009254-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/212f2eb9-344f-44a6-af00-2c52715e0721.png?v=1781752219","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200009254-secondhand-japanese-imperialism-today-co-prosperity-in-greater-east-asia","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
