Japan and the British Commonwealth Occupation Force 1946-52
Author: Peter Bates
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
The end to the Japanese war in August 1945 came as a complete surprise to the forces in the field. Preparations had been in hand for the assault on Okinawa, planned for November 1945. The initial momentum to establish an occupying force on the main islands came from the American government. Yet a desire for a positive British presence in Japan, backed up by other battle-hardened Commonwealth nations, provides this narrative with the conflict between MacArthur and what were his allies, for political pretensions as a major power in the Far East.

The British Commonwealth and the Allied Occupation of Japan, 1945 - 1952
Author: Ian Nish
Publisher: Global Oriental
ISBN: 9004242961
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
The Allied Occupation of Japan lasted from 2 September 1945 to 28 April 1952 and ushered in an era of unprecedented change for that country. Although British Commonwealth participation played only small part in that story – involving only some 30,000 troops from the various Commonwealth countries compared with the vast numbers of the United States Eighth Army – it nevertheless prompts a discussion, hitherto largely undocumented, concerning its role and relevance. In The British Commonwealth and the Allied Occupation of Japan, Ian Nish who himself was a member of BCOF presents papers by twenty-three authors, partly biographical, partly academic, on subjects grouped in five themes: Origins of the Allied Occupation, Attitudes on the Occupation, Personal Views, the Commonwealth and Peace Negotiations, and the Commonwealth and the Japanese Treaties.

The Occupation of Japan
Author: George Neville Davies
Publisher: University of Queensland Press(Australia)
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 436
Book Description
George Davies was a member of the first contingent of New Zealanders who left Italy to join the British Commonwealth Occupation Force (BCOF) in Japan. In this penetrating study he throws a searchlight into the shadowy origins and outcomes of BCOF. He provides a unique analysis of the relative contributions of Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom to World War II in the Middle East and the Pacific; and of the tensions in Anglo-Australasian relations before and during the occupation of Japan.A well documented and realistic account of a rare experience in social engineering, it charts the establishment of a working democratic constitutional monarchy in a country devastated by war and years of authoritarian rule. Through recently accessed information from documents on 'behind the scenes' activities, this fascinating contribution to military history reconstructs a sense of the dynamics of the times.
