Book Description

1 July 1997 0304701114 978-0304701117
This study is a product of a media project undertaken by the London International Research Exchange. Contributors include academics, researchers and working journalists. The volume seeks to shed new light on the West's long and uneasy relationship with Japan, tracing its evolution from the 19th century to 1995 - the 50th anniversary of the Pacific War. The authors question received notions of cultural difference in the discourses of politics, anthropology, and journalism. The book should be of interest to those in the fields of media and cultural studies, anthropology and Japanese studies.

1.0 out of 5 stars Derivative, banal, badly-written 12 April 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
And frequently wrong about basic matters: the commander of the squadron that opened Japan was not William Perry, the Liaotung Peninsula was never in Korea, etc. Hasn't Cassell heard of sending out work to readers who know something about the subject? Save your money unless you're interested in a flatfooted target for easy pot-shots at criticism that tries to be post-colonial and post-modernist but is really just ignorant.
