Geography, this author contends, is the indisputably unique feature of any country. Geography and Japan's Strategic Choices begins by explaining Japan's unique location and topography in comparison to other countries. Peter Woolley then examines the ways in which the country's political leaders in various eras understood and acted on those geographical limitations and advantages. Proceeding chronologically through several distinct political eras, the book compares the Tokugawa era, the opening to the West, the Meiji Restoration, the long era of colonialization, industrialization and liberalization, the militarist reaction and World War II, the occupation, the Cold War, and finally the rudderless fin de siecle. Finally Woolley demonstrates how Japan's strategic situation in the twenty-first century is informed by past and present geo-strategic calculations as well as by current domestic and international changes. For students and scholars of U.S.-Japan relations and of Japanese history and politics, this book offers any informed reader a fresh perspective on a critical international relationship.

"Japan has emerged in the years since the end of World War II from a basically agrarian society to its present position as one of the three leading industrial nations of the world. In this, a second edition of Professor's Kornhauser's standard work originally published under the title Urban Japan, the author examines this transformation of the Japanese landscape within an historical geographic framework. Professor Kornhauser begins with a description of the physical landscape, and then reviews the history of agricultural development and change before looking at the history of the city from the eighth century to the present time. The growing importance of a city network from the seventeenth century is emphasised but there are appropriate references to earlier periods of development and to outside influences, especially from China and Korea. The important periods in the rise of cities to dominance in the culture are stressed, with considerable discussion of the Edo Period (1600-1868), the transformations of pre-modern cities in the Meiji Period (1868-1912), and the periods before, during and after World War II. Considerable attention is paid to the effects of external influences such as wars and economic disruptions in shaping Japan's commercial successes and failures. In the concluding chapter Professor Kornhauser summarizes the changes in the Japanese landscape and examines the role of planning, especially in an urban-industrial context, and reviews the problems facing Japan at the present and in the future. For this new edition the text has been thoroughly revised to bring it right up-to-date. The book contains a selective but annotated bibliography and is profusely illustrated. This new edition will consolidate the book's position as an essential text for students and teachers of the geography of Japan, and it will be widely used in courses on urban and economic geography"--Unedited summary from book cover.

In a globalized market where the emerging workforce will increasingly travel within their nations and abroad for work opportunities, it is valuable to learn about the international education system and practices, to assess the competition. For example, annual comparison of student performance is measured across math and science subjects globally. What is not well known is how geography educational systems compare around the world and how student success in this subject translates to learning in other courses or employment after graduation. The importance of geography in our personal, professional, and civic lives is transparent when one considers how finding one’s way with a map, understanding of world cultures, or identifying spatial patterns of disease spread might influence the decisions we make. Written for a global audience, this is the first English publication on geography education in Japan, addressing some fundamental questions. What is the nature of the geography educational systems in Japan? How does the focus on content and skills in Japanese schools differ from that in other countries? This book includes 25 authors from diverse geography instruction and research experiences, making it an authoritative publication on Japan’s geography education system. The contribution of this book to the larger geography educational community is sharing the key strengths, concerns, and future of this school subject in English, where previously most publications were in Japanese. It will be a useful source for researchers and teachers to understand Japan’s evolving geography instruction in the past, present, and future. The 21 chapters are organized into themes, beginning with an overview of the geography education system in Japan, followed by chapters that deal with regional geography and fieldwork, teacher training, geography education’s contributions to society, and a comparative study of geography education across multiple countries. The book ends with a vision of geography education in the future.
