The Meiji restoration
A comprehensive and scholarly examination of the pivotal events of 1868 in Japan, when Imperial power was restored. He argues that the Restoration was not primarily driven by economic distress or class conflict, but by a rising sense of national danger and pride as Japan encountered Western powers. Nationalism motivated the overthrow of the Tokugawa shogunate and the re-unification of Japan under Emperor Meiji. After the fall of the Tokugawa, the new regime sought to build a modern state by adopting new social, political, and institutional patterns. Beasley details the origins, development, and immediate aftermath of the Restoration, providing insight into how Japan laid the foundations for modernity.
