Based on a wide range of archival material and sources in Japanese Chinese and English it explores the propaganda programs of the Japanese government from 1931 to 1945 demonstrating the true scope of imperial propaganda and its pervasive influence an influence that is still felt today. Contrary to popular postwar rhetoric it was not emperor worship or military authoritarianism that led an entire nation to war. Rather it was the creation of a powerful image of Japan as the leader of modern Asia and the belief that the Japanese could and would guide Asia to a new glorious period of reform that appealed to imperial subjects. Kushner analyzes the role of the police and military in defining socially acceptable belief and behavior by using their influence to root out malcontents. His research is the first of its kind to treat propaganda as a profession in wartime Japan. He shows that the leadership was not confined to the crude tools of sloganeering and government-sponsored demonstrations but was able instead to appropriate the expertise of the nation's advertising firms to ""sell"" the image of Japan as Asia's leader and modernizer. In his exploration of the propaganda war in popular culture and the entertainment industry Kushner discloses how entertainers sought to bolster their careers by adopting as their own pro-war messages that then filtered down into society and took hold. Japanese propaganda frequently conflicted with Chinese and American visions of empire and Kushner reveals the reactions of these two nations to Japan's efforts and the meaning of their responses. ""A major contribution both to the study of Japan and propaganda in the twentieth century. Barak Kushner meticulously and convincingly reveals the full scope of what was assumed to not have existed; namely an organized multifaceted and disturbingly resilient system of Japanese propaganda. Based on an impressive array of primary sources many only recently uncovered The Thought War provides a fascinating assessment of the complex and often contradictory processes of Japanese propaganda in an imperial context."" --Michael Baskett University of Kansas ""Barak Kushner has written a first-rate study of propaganda in Japan during the Second World War. In a work of painstaking research he takes his readers into the heart of wartime Japan building a compelling argument that Japanese propaganda was sophisticated and effective in rallying the population and after the war seamlessly redirecting it to aid the transformation of Imperial Japan into the post-war democracy of today. The Thought War is a superbly competent piece of research that floods light into a place where only generalization supposition and stereotype had existed before."" --Nicholas J.
