Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book explores the deterioration of U.S.-Japanese relations during World War I, highlighting the historical sources of rising tensions. It examines conflicts in national interests, including geopolitical and economic factors, along with perceptual issues like miscommunication and mistrust. Central to the analysis is the clash between America's universalist and idealistic foreign policy and Japan's regionalism, shaped by a strong racial identity and anti-Western nationalism. This complex interplay of factors led to a significant shift from cooperation to antagonism.
