How has Japanese culture today continued to be shaped by the Second World War? In what ways have Japanese stayed rooted in a prewar social structure while absorbing policies of the Allied Occupation? This web exhibition uses public records to explore how, in the pre- and postwar periods, Japan was politically transformed in areas of economics, society and culture.
With this web exhibition, you can easily browse official documents from institutions involved in the repatriation of civilians and troops abroad at the time of the end of World War Two.

In an effort to break the deadlock between the US and Japan following the signing of the Tripartite Pact, Bishop James Walsh and Father James Drought visited Japan to make an appeal for peace to Foreign Minister Matsuoka and other Government / Army leaders. This resulted in the "Draft Understanding" which was to be presented by Ambassador Kichisaburo Nomura to Secretary of State Cordell Hull on 16 April 1941. Nomura's appointment early that year as Ambassador to the US marked a new phase in US-Japan relations.
This exhibition was created in 2004, marking the centenary of the Russo-Japanese War.

The Russo-Japanese War, after 100 years, could enlighten us in many ways as a mirror shedding light on the present and the future.
