Japan from prehistory to modern times
the political, social, and cultural evolution of Japan from its earliest eras through the mid‑20th century. Hall places special emphasis on Japan’s premodern period, analyzing how its feudal institutions, social hierarchies, and political structures changed over more than two millennia. He explores the influence of both the Chinese civilization (especially from the 6th century) and the Western powers (after Japan’s opening in the 1850s), showing how Japan selectively absorbed external ideas while maintaining a strong national identity. Hall argues that Japan’s maritime orientation, its sense of nationality, and the transformation of its political institutions were key in its rise to modernity.
