Book Description
Many Western commentators have expressed their admiration for the Japanese police system, tracing its origins to the American Occupation of Japan (1945-52). This study challenges the assumptions that underlie these accounts, focusing on the problems that attended the reform of the Japanese police during the Occupation. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources, Christopher Aldous explores the extent to which America failed in it's goal of 'democratizing' the Japanese police force, arguing that deeply-rooted tradition, the pivotal importance of the black market, and the US's decision to opt for an indirect Occupation produced resistance to reform. His study concludes with a consideration of the postwar legacy of the Occupation's police reform, and touches on a number of recent controversies, most notably the case of Aum Shinrikyo.

Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Kempeitai was an organization that was so loyal to Japanese ultra-nationalist militarism that it was known for its cruelty and its ability to torture prisoners. Its reputation terrified Allied prisoners of war and civilian internees, and its position of power seemed unassailable. #2 The Kempeitai was the Japanese police force, and it was as brutal and sadistic as the Gestapo. It was responsible for running the country’s prisoner of war and civilian internment camp system, and under its control, the camps were as harsh and depraved as those run by the Nazis. #3 The Japanese saw the threat of the European dog, and they knew that if they did not act, their culture and independence would be lost. They knew that the threat came from trade turning into economic warfare waged by the most ruthless means. #4 The Chinese government watched as its economy fell piece by piece into Western hands, and watched as every attempt they made to reassert their authority was met with gunboat diplomacy. The Westerners protected their huge trade profits, and they were exempt from Chinese laws and punishments through the principle of extraterritoriality.

Book Description
Based upon years of research undertaken in the US Occupation archives, this book provides a history of Japan’s National Police Reserve (NPR), the precursor of today’s Ground Self Defense Force (GSDF). It is the first ever comprehensive and exclusively focused history of the force in any language. The book examines the domestic and international origins of the force, the American constabulary model upon which it was based, the NPR's character and operation, and its evolution into the GSDF. This volume provides numerous insights and fresh perspectives on the character of the NPR, the origins of the SDF, the US Occupation of Japan and Cold War era US-Japan relations.
