講義概要 ／Course description	The primary purpose of this course is to provide you with a survey of modern Japanese history. Our main goal is to see how Japan evolved as a modern nation-state since the mid-19th century and to gain insights into major patterns and themes that characterize the development of modern Japan and Japan’s rise to a regional and global power. Furthermore, this survey of Japan’s modern history shall enable you to bring a more discerning eye to your understanding of contemporary Japan, which is in diverse ways shaped by its historical experience. Lastly, this course is intended to impart some notion of what historiography as an intellectual discipline is. We ask questions about the past that are inseparable from our present personal, social, cultural and political experiences. It is our individual interest that leads this dialog with the past and that makes history a multi-dimensional and contested endeavor.
