Japanese Expansion And American Policies - James Francis Abbott - Bog

""Japanese Expansion and American Policies"" is a book written by James Francis Abbott that explores the relationship between Japan and the United States during the early 20th century. The book focuses on the period between the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905 and the outbreak of World War II in 1939, examining the ways in which Japan's expansionist policies and the United States' response to them shaped the geopolitical landscape of the Pacific region. Abbott provides a detailed analysis of the political, economic, and military factors that influenced the actions of both nations during this period. He explores the role of key figures such as President Theodore Roosevelt, Secretary of State Henry Stimson, and Japanese Prime Minister Hideki Tojo, as well as the impact of events such as the Washington Naval Conference of 1921-1922 and the Manchurian Crisis of 1931-1933. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources, including government documents, diplomatic correspondence, and contemporary newspapers, Abbott offers a nuanced and comprehensive account of this complex and often contentious relationship. He also considers the broader implications of Japanese expansionism for the international system, including the rise of fascism in Europe and the eventual outbreak of World War II. Overall, ""Japanese Expansion and American Policies"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of East Asia, U.S. foreign policy, and the dynamics of great power rivalry in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
