The mainfocus of this editedvolume is an examination of dynamic relationships among Japan, Taiwan, Korea, and the northeastern region of China, and the economic development of each area in East Asia from the 1910s to the end of WorldWar II.

What was theirreversible change in each colonial economy by means of forced incorporationinto the Japanese empire? What was the impact on economic subjects such asmerchants, manufacturers, managers, and workers through the colonial regime? Thisbook provides readers with broad perspectives that are indispensable given thatthe factors discussed herein are the historical origins of current issues.
