Description: Dominant Narratives of Colonial Hokkaido and Imperial Japan: Envisioning the Periphery and the Modern Nation-State by Michele M. Mason Hardcover in very good condition with clean pages and tight binding (as pictured) Free shipping anywhere in the United States Synopsis: The dominant narratives of Colonial Hokkaido, particularly during the Meiji era (1868-1912), are fascinating and complex. These narratives often highlight the Japanese government’s efforts to modernize and integrate Hokkaido into the nation-state, portraying it as a frontier that needed to be tamed and developed. This process involved significant cultural and social changes, including the displacement and marginalization of the indigenous Ainu people. Michele M. Mason’s work, “Dominant Narratives of Colonial Hokkaido and Imperial Japan,” delves into how these narratives were constructed and the impact they had on Japan’s national identity and imperial ideology1. The book discusses how the colonial project in Hokkaido was not just about economic development but also about creating a unified national identity and promoting imperial ambitions
