Product Description
The Meiji Restoration of 1868 is one of the most astonishing political events of the modern era, yet it doesnt fit easily with Western precedents of mass mobilization and social transformation. This book challenges some of the preconceptions that have hindered the Restoration being understood on its own terms.
