description: A major study of the crucial relations between Japan and America during and just after the Korean War. Establishing the significance of the Korean War provides the key for the evaluation of postwar Japanese history. This conflict speeded up Japanese rearmament and assured a peace treaty that Japan could live with. Professor Kim demonstrates that the onset of a shooting war changed the perception of Japan as a former enemy to a needed ally and valuable trading partner.
